send me a e-mail and i will send you the paperwork needed to obtain your fathers service records

i really don't think they do enough for the members. my brother had PTSD....... all they did for him was pay for his funeral...... thanks a bunch.... but i would rather have had my him still here...... instead of his Beret and medals.

i am getting ones regularly from e-bay about my account is under suspension........... what i did was select all and copy it to mic word....... and found under the e-bay icon a e-mail address so i signed him up for a couple of suggestive web site.......... just for a chuckle

i have just picked up a set of the black cap badge and collars for the RCD's and was just wondering if they used black brass shoulder titles as well or did they just use the standard brass any help would be appreciated

i was with the: 2137 Calgary Highlanders 2509 RC Sig's (Calgary) as for the information on regimental alliances try going here http://regiments.org/regiments/na-canada/lists/cargxref.htm

i tried to start a similar thread just after the D-Day Anniversary......... but there seems to be no takers.......... until now............ thanks Mike for the site and for the opportunity to show case my father's collections......... in the insignia section...

what type are you looking for.............. cloth or brass ???

thank you for the information; i just received my grandfather's service records from the archives and he was fined twice under this section in 1953 & 1954 when he was with the strathcona's

i am looking for some one who might know a little about the national defense act pertaining to section 118 in 1954

i have five generations of medals.......... spanning 88 years of service to this nation (1916-2002) and i will be dammed if they are ever to be sold for profit.......... they are family history......... not a bargaining chip to be held for ransom to the highest bidder.... if my nest of kin does...

i have about five different types of cap badges PM me if you would like a scan of them

took CL in 1980 --------------- RTU'd for medical reasons............ never heeled unable to return best time.......... made a couple of great friends........... at least made it through "Rambler"

great idea mike............... should be better than duking it out with the snipers  :sniper:
