He said Canadian troops are in a class 'ny themselves when compared with the troops of other United Nations countries participating in the Kor- ean war. He said the Canadians are a lisp- lly-go-lucky group. and it was only on rare occasions that they ever seemed discouraged. He said their morale was the highest of any country taking part in the war.
