Three Canadian casualties

Military officials are still investigating how Corporal Andrew Grenon, 23, Cpl. Mike Seggie, 21, and Private Chad Horn, 21, were killed Wednesday as they patrolled west of Kandahar city.

The Taliban rarely succeed in inflicting casualties in direct confrontations with Canadians. The last major incident happened exactly two years ago, on Sept. 3, 2006, in a battle that killed four soldiers at the beginning of Operation Medusa, the largest offensive by Canadian troops in half a century.
They will be remembered.
