Maj Lyon was a great man. Was there to help when my friend went through some very rough times. Here he is in 1994 as one of the Padres for the Blackdown Cadet Camp. https://www.armycadethistory.com/Blackdown%20platoon%20photos/blackdown_1994_the_padres.htm Rest easy Sir.

I too have an OD one that I won't let go of. But last year at the Borden Canex there were similar FMP covers for sale, in black as well. Not sure who the manufacturer is, MilSpex maybe.

My first stethoscope was a Littman Classic II which I used as a PCP and into the ACP program. Then I upgraded to the Cardiology III which I used for 11 years until it recently grew legs. I keep tight control of my kit so am rather bothered that it went missing. (Oh and shortly after I got the...

I was in Cat Lake that day, on a MEDEVAC aircraft, getting out some of the elders with complex health issues (none of which were helped by he smoke they were inhaling). Two hercs were flying back and forth to Greenstone (Geraldton) with loads of evacuees. Incredible well organized, they were...

In my first years in Army Cadets, we used to have a couple of Range EX a year firing the FNC1. Even carried the FN around in the bush on FTX. Looks like those days are long gone.

10 years ago, to work at an airport, I had to apply for my first security and was fingerprinted. They also wanted employment (or school) history and every address I'd lived at in the same time period. Since then i've kept a document on my computer with an up to date list of all that information...

Tuck the t-shirt into the gitch. Problem solved. Although for proper flame retardant protection, should be wearing Nomex or natural fibre (cotton, wool or silk) long underwear (Not that I do during the summer, it is just too hot). Been wearing Civvie 1-piece Nomex flightsuits of similar cut to...

About 6 years ago we were on our way back to Thunder Bay from a cancelled medevac north of Kenora I believe. While our pilots went for fuel in Dryden, they dropped us (the 2 medics) in the vacant lot next to the Dryden Tim Hortons to pick up coffee and donuts for the ride home. I guess it was...

As the report says he had been living in Ontario (where is family is I believe), and I don't know how recently, but it was here that he worked as a Paramedic. I worked with him for a bit about 7-8 years ago and he had major issues, even back then. He worked both land and air ambulance as a...
