Pomeroy's Diner was an eatery in Rosenfeld, Manitoba. The proprietor, Mort Pomeroy, had been indifferent to the US occupation of Canada, but this changed when his wife Mary was hanged for her terrorist acts. When the United States Army suppressed the Canadian resistance movement in Rosenfeld in 1943, Pomeroy's Diner became a rebel strongpoint. The US Army was forced to destroy the diner and Pomeroy's gang; only Mort's young son Alec survived.
