Maj Denne is currently the DCO for 2RCR Iif I recall correctly. I was his
Coy 2IC in Echo during the fall of 1990 just after I joined the Battalion
in London.
You should be able to pass a message to Maj Denne through the Battalion‘s
web site at: http://www.ibsltd.nb.ca/2rcr/
I am currently the Ops O for the LFCA TC Meaford.
