Rear Admiral Piers, RCN, dead at 92.

As a naval man, I felt it my duty to post this. Another much loved WWII veteran passes on.
He retired from the RCN back when it was still something like a navy, shortly before the unification of the military branches into the Canadian Armed Forces. Godspeed, sir.
