The South Marysburgh Mirror 5 Personal Notices, Announcements & Random Notes The South Bay Rock Fes(cid:415)val Kudos to Brian and Margie of Half Moon Bay Winery for an innova(cid:415)ve event on the Father's day weekend. Visitors are invited to come to the winery and explore the vineyard in the hope of finding interes(cid:415)ng rocks and fossils. You're not likely to find any diamonds or dinos on the property, but experts on hand will be able to explain what you have gathered. The Forger's Son What began as a casual comment about former Milford Bistro owner Chris Pengelly's dad during a recent dinner party with friends, turned into a fairly lengthy search for confirma(cid:415)on of facts. It is probably not lost on people that Hollywood movies occasionally bend the truth to create a more marketable product for American audiences. The fairly recent Oscar-winning Ben Affleck movie about the US hostage crisis in Iran, Argo, comes to mind as an example where Canada's role in shaping history has been diminished.

In fact, it was Canadian POWs who played the leading role in the historic escape from Stalag Lu(cid:332) III including Chris' father, the then 20-year-old Flight Lt. Tony Pengelly, who forged correct documents for the escapees. In the movie, The Forger was played by Donald Pleasence.
