I was ROUTP in 75 and 76 although in 76 they changed the name to
Reserve Entry Scheme Officer - RESO. I still get Gagetown flashbacks.

I did mine in 1970. It was one summer in Shilo. Kind of a strange
program...everyone trained as Infantry even the 4 or 5 who were going to be
pilots. I wonder how many stayed in afterwards...never really ran into many
over the next 20 years.

I recall mess dinners in the field in Shilo too. Summer of 71 wasn‘t it?
