You military guys will get a kick out of this..

A lone young Belgian boy waits to salute Canadian troops who were attending a military memorial service....

The "Eyes Right" command is the highest compliment troops on parade can pay and is reserved for dignitaries at reviewing stands.

Watch what they do for this little boy.
Every now and then, somethings just make you smile.

That's OK Semper fidelis is the motto of the West Nova Scotia Regiment who inherited the motto from The Lunenburg Regiment formed in the 1870's. It is also the Motto of Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Valcartier, Quebec.
