On Remembrance Day, we remember our fallen soldiers. One of those fallen soldiers was Corporal Steve Martin. Martin was killed by an improvised explosive device December 18, 2010 while on operations in the Panjwa’i district of Kandahar Province in Afghanistan. He was the 154th soldier to die as a result of the Afghanistan mission. His body was flown back to Canada shortly after. Martin was a member of the 3rd Batallion Royal 22e Regiment and was to turn 25 in two days. He is remembered by his family, friends and nation.
