The RCMP museum in Regina would be a good place to look/contact.  The old museum had a nice section of the Dominion Police.

With any luck, pictures will be released showing the removal.  Kind of like the ones with the T34 in Poland (Ukraine?)

It seems stories like this one, only getread and passed on within our small community.  It's a sad note about our society that this story isn't generally known.

The "dark times" are coming.  40 + soldiers on release in the next couple of months from Shilo.  Reminds me of my youth when entire Battleschool platoons would clear in and then clear out 3 years later. 

Sad news, RiP.

Agreed, never saw smoke gren carried there.  I was never a C9 gunner, C2 only.  When we wore 82 pat web gear, I wore 2 utility pouches.  On one of them, I had a bayonet frog sewn on the side and wore my bayonet there.

A green sweatsuit was issued back in the mid 80's at CFRS.  We received one each.

Doesn't look like they have one right now, but the probably can help you: http://www.marway-militaria.com/home.php

NCM replaced the term, "OR= Other Rank."

Its been done before.  Knew a guy in Pet, MBdr, who became an Infantry Officer.  He is now a reservist and working at CMTC.

Definately located at the Infantry School.  Try phoning Gagetown and ask for the Infantry School, Small Arms Cell.

Random.  The course staff had the whole crse meet at the ramp.  I would like to think it was Mike.

No prob.  I got the pic from Serge.  Not sure if he took it or not.

RiP Colonel, VRI.

Best option is to pick a job you like/ have an aptitude for.  Picture yourself doing 25 yrs in that job.  The reason, chances are you won't be selected for JTF2, so have a solid job plan.

When a soldier receives his offer of employment for infantry, it clearly states which regiment he will belong to.  From the moment you are sworn in, you become a member of that regiment.  This is why the trade seemed over strength to NDHQ, but not at unit level.
