Hi Henry

Thats a pretty good try. Maybe Jack Smith, Frank Omara, Bob Andrews, Gary St George, Gene Madore, John Currie, Gerry Lowe and Corkey Sanford don't ring a bell but they still do with me.

Are you Henry Companion that I haven't seen since a long time ago?

Henry

Yes it was me in Fort York from 62 to 65. What have you been doing since 65? I spent my whole life in the Army and retired as Base CWO in Camp Wainwright in 1999.(I also did my RSM in 1 RCR 88 to 90.)

Well I better go now and Pro Patria

Hi Jim
I made a copy of the photo and brought it to the adv poll where I worked for the last 3 days so I had a lot of time to go back a few great years with ROYALS. There are a few not sure however like I always said  in doing a test put an answer anyway. Now here I go;
Front row, 1 Vitos, 2 Gillespie, 3 Robinson, 4 ? , 5 MacIsaac, 6 Archampbault, 7 Lowe, 9  ?,
2nd row, 1 Jensen, 2 Neil, 3 Turner, 4 Lafferty, 5 Stott, 6 Mac Neil, 7 Curry, 8 Fr Sackville NB?
3rd row, 1 Robinson, 2 Conway, 3 McLennan, 4 Ettienne, 5 Crouse, 6 Thistle, 7 David 8 Boufard 9 Hunter, 10 St George, 11 Campbell, 12 Madore
4th row, 1 Winsor, 2 Companion, 3 McClymouth, 4 Heffernan, 5 Jack Smith, 6 O'Mara, 7 Andrews, 8 Ken Smith, 9 Redmond.
That is my flashback of the days and now days have many of them in the wintertime when  not at the back www.escuminacbeach.com
Jim let me know the ones I made a mistake on some of them I had few name for however they were all good guys for example when I look at Jerry Lowe he reminds me of Salter and Henry reminded me of Murray Darrow. They all look in good physical shape judging from myself, I would to see them nowdays hahaha. Have day Aldore

HI Aldore

You did real good identifying names of old buddies and old soldiers. I see you couldn't name the following - 1st row #8 - Corkey Sanford (after 7 comes 8 not 9 hahahaha.) 1st row #4 unknown to me also. 2nd row #8 frenchie (that's what I called him.)

You might be surprised at the shape of some them but not surprised of the majority of them. hahaha

Well I have to go Aldore so Pro Patria until next time.
