We lost another 2 of our heroes in Afghanistan. Major Yannick Pepin, 36, and Cpl. Jean-François Drouin, 31, were killed Sunday by a roadside bomb while on patrol southwest of Kandahar. The soldiers were members of the 5 Combat Engineer Regiment based in Valcartier, Que. Since 2002, 129 Canadian soldiers have died as part of the Afghan mission.
