Cpl. Nicolas Raymond Beauchamp, 28, of the 5th Field Ambulance in Valcartier, Que., and Pte. Michel Levesque, 25, of the 3rd battalion of the Royal 22nd Regiment, also in Valcartier were tragically killed this weekend in Afghanistan. This brings our total deaths in combat to 73 soldiers and one diplomat.

In tribute to their death, please watch this video (make sure your audio is turned on). If you are interested in contributing squares to the Operation Purple Heart project, please email me at stashaholic@gmail.com. Their bodies will be repatriated tomorrow and driven down the Highway of Heroes. If you can make one of the overpasses it would be amazing.
