Hi Gord

Going back to our previous conversation about keeping in touch the old crew, go to www.facebook.com and set up an account. Search my name and add me as a friend. You can look at my friends and you'll recognize allot of names. Let me know if you need any help getting set up.

Good to hear from you, Gord.  Remember the old saying "Once a Royal, always a Royal."  It still is true.  Have a look at <www.thercr.ca> and browse through the sections.

There are lots of us around who have done a turn with the Toronto garrison (RSS).  I did three years with the Toronto Scottish over at Fort York Armouries.

Feel free to post a bit more of your life and career on the site here.  We all want to hear from you.
