Norman Gulko served in the Canadian army in World War Two, where he saw action on several fronts. After training and the overseas journey, he was deployed to Italy. When that campaign was nearing its conclusion, he was sent to the Netherlands, where he fought through northern Europe and into Germany itself. Norman brought many personal insights about his wartime experiences to Brandon Chow, Katherine Charness, and Daniel Sugar, who interviewed him at the Sunnybrook Veterans’ residence in November 2011.
