His Soldier's Coat (Excerpt): "He did not choose the Freedom that existed mere inches from him, so close he could drink it in with every breath. Instead, Gabriel Ryan turned towards the onrush of people that crowded around him-a gathering of lost and dying souls that had seen revelry for scant hours, then had borne witness to absolute horror." The Knights Of Columbus Fire, in a Military Leave Centre in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada, in 1942, took the lives of ninety-nine poor souls, with a further one hundred and nine injured by the flames. The victims were comprised of the following branches of the Armed Forces of several countries: Royal Canadian Air Force; The Canadian Army; The United States Army; The Royal Navy; The Royal Canadian Naval Reserve; The Merchant Navy, and on home ground and hardest hit, The Newfoundland Militia. This catastrophic event, analysed by Justice Inquiries to be the work of German espionage, still reverberates throughout wartime history. Here at last is the true story of one Newfoundland Militia Private who found himself inside this raging inferno one wintry December night, based upon his private journals.
