Thanks for posting this....it's just that almost evryone in the province of Québec over the age of 60 knows who Triquet is..and those with a modicum of Canadian military history in Canada.....I forgot it's not the same for those outside Canada. Sad to say that the end of his life was not as glorious as the winning of the VC. Jo
