Canadian Military Pattern Trucks - cut outs

Click on the trucks for a full page version. Just use your printer and card stock paper to print out. Be careful when cutting them out...ask your parents for some assistance. After cutting the trucks out, fold at the tires and glue the two sides together. You may glue the bottom onto a separate piece of card stock paper, cut into a disc shape, to form a stand for the trucks.

Visit www.juniorgeneral.org to print out many different vehicles, aircraft and soldiers of different countries and build your own army for free.

Colouring Page

Click on the colouring page of a Canadian Veteran for a full size page that you can colour. Because men and women risked their lives for us in war, and some died for us, we are grateful to them and wear poppies in their memory. Many veterans belong to an organization called the Royal Canadian Legion. Thank a veteran everyday when you see one.

Colour Guideline for the Vet

Beret: dark blue, with red-and-white maple leaf badge. Blazer: dark blue. Medals: bronze or silver, with red, green, blue and yellow ribbons. Poppy: red with black centre.
