Corporal Brent Poland Honoured Sunday

There was a special ceremony honouring Corporal Brent Poland Sunday at St. John in the Wilderness Anglican Church in Bright's Grove.

Rector Kim Matelka says their cemetery has been rededicated in honour of the local soldier who paid the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan eight years ago.

His parents, Don and Pat Poland, spearheaded the project.
