I applied for my past PER's several years ago. Not only did I get my past PER's, I also received - without asking - my complete medical file, and another large file containing "general" paperwork, including several old cadet summer camp applications from the 1970's, and all my recruiting...

See.....the Good Idea Fairy has already struck!!! Cue a few Sailors having a stroke in a moment...

This caught my eye......"Didulo, based out of Victoria, B.C." I wonder if she wears tweed ??? :cool:

Stu MacDonald was my Social Studies teacher at N Van High......great guy. One of my few teachers who made school interesting.

Did anyone expect anything different????

Yes, sure looks like it.

Interesting thread. Even more interesting is that nobody has used, or mentioned CFB Comox in their ideas.

The website was taken down after the server owner complained the site was getting too big to host, and the Army Cadet league refused to cough up more $$ to keep it running. It's a great shame as 99% of the history on that site was unavailable anywhere else.

Colin, I left home in North Van 44 years ago when I joined the Forces........now I can't afford to go home. My last visit was about 3 years ago and I was shocked at the changes, it certainly isn't the quiet place I grew up in. Sad really, I always thought I'd end up back there.

The silver metal maple leaf was worn over the red maple leaf back in the day before the wings with the white maple leaf were in the system.  It means your granddad was an active jumper and had/was filling a jump position. Hope this helps. Cheers, BillN

He's wearing the cap badge and collar dogs of the Royal Canadian Signals.  I hope that helps.

Available in two sizes at Loblaws in Kingston....the one on Midland Ave.  Mmmmmmm............. :nod:

Recceguy, I couldn't have said it better myself. 

Like many of my veteran friends I will not joint the RCL until the rules on civilian membership are completely re-written.  In my personal opinion as long as this association continues to allow non-veterans to join as members, it cannot be a veterans association.  The same goes for the ANAVETS. 

I have never been very impressed with my dealings with the RCL.  As a veteran, why would I waste my time joining joining the Legion when 90% of the membership have no idea about what veterans need, want, or require?  And, more to the point, for the most part make no effort to try to understand...
