The Second World War Series - Stanley Edwards and the Dieppe Raid
Stanley Edwards was a Calgary Tanks trooper and participated in the Dieppe Raid. He was captured by German soldiers and became a Prisoner of war. He escaped merely days before the end of the Second World War.
This episode was created using the audio from our “Heroes Remember” (http://10.199.41.150/eng/video-gallery/video/11414) series. Sadly, Mr. Edwards passed away in 2019, at the age of 96. We are preserving his legacy.
