It is the story of the 123 corvettes they sailed. It is the story of how people's lives were touched by war, so it is a tale of drama, adventure, humour and death. And in many ways the corvette story is an analogy for Canada as a whole: unprepared for war, committed to a cause, bloodied in battle - and ultimately triumphant."
