DESCRIPTION:Second Event – HMCS Trentonian and the Corvette Navy Wednesday\, May 6 2026– 1900 hrs (7:00 PM)  Join us for the next installment of Echoes of Valour\, an evening series hosted at the National Military Cemetery that brings Canada’s military history to life through expert storytelling and immersive displays.  This edition features naval historian and author Roger Litwiller\, who will dive into the dramatic story of HMCS Trentonian—the last corvette lost in action during the Second World War—and the broader legacy of the Corvette Navy that defined the Royal Canadian Navy’s wartime contributions.  From convoy escorts in the treacherous North Atlantic to the final sacrifice off the coast of France\, this presentation will explore the courage\, innovation\, and endurance of the young sailors who crewed these small but mighty warships.  The evening will include photographs capturing the spirit and sacrifice of Canada’s wartime navy.  Admission is free. All are welcome. Register today!
