Good Afternoon,
Probably one of the younger lads in here. Readers' Digest follows:
John P Davis. Was 2 Svc Bn in Petawawa from 89-92. Got tired of all the politics so I got out. Realising job prospects in Kitchener were rather limited, I re-enlisted and went RCR. Best move ever!
After having to do basic again, it was off to Meaford in Jan of 96, then off to Petawawa again. 3rd Herd with O and R Coy until 2003 when I took a medical release at the rank of Cpl. Had the pleasure of many trips local and abroad in my short time in. After getting out, moved to Edmonton. Wife and I split and went back to Kitchener, Ontario. And I'll be following but once I hit London, that's where I dismount and dig in.
Upon reflection, being a Royal was probably one of the best moves I made in my life actually. Met tons of great guys, still in contact with a few. Dad (Keith LM Davis, Cpl) was right about that, him being a former Royal himself... Once a Royal, always a Royal. He was in from 66-76. His first posting was Germany, where yours truly entered the scene. Then it was off to Petawawa from 69 to 72, the he re-mustered to Dental assistant and wound up here in Edmonton until his Voluntary release in 76.
OK so that wasn't the most chronological intro ever, but I never claimed to be a major in anything relating to English Class.  And I guess this is where I sign off. Enjoy reading the forums, I'm sure I'll be talking to some of you as time wears on.
