Help choose the September/October cover of Legion Magazine!
The September/October issue of Legion Magazine takes you inside Operation Apollo and the first action by Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan 20 years ago. A small contingent of special forces troops from Joint Task Force 2, unproven in the eyes of their allies, were dispatched within weeks of the 9/11 attacks. They exceeded all expectations.
Also in this issue: The story of Colonel Lawrence Moore Cosgrave, the career soldier and diplomat who signed the Japanese articles of surrender on Canada’s behalf. How a wooden warplane conquered Canada’s Arctic. And a photo essay on the training camp at Valcartier, Que., where Canadians from all walks of life and every corner of the country got a crash course in how to be a soldier in 1914.

There was more to the mission than Op Apollo. It should read “The Canadian Warriors of Afghanistan”.
