Well I can shed some light on a few of the guys, that bottom pic is George Warren, I think Kenny Lutz is in the background, the tall guy, sorry, is very familiar, just can't put a name to the face, and the short bearded fella is Little John Mercer. The Photo to the left of that is a guy by the last name of Sutherland, lived across the hall from me in the Ledra Palace. a few photos up the five guys standing in front of the palm tree is the int cell which was me, Bernie Viscount, Capt Towhey, and sorry can't remember the WO or the Privates names if I recognize any more I'll be sure to post.

Hey Doug, great to see your name here. I remember you from Echo Co. You were in Pioneers and I was in ADP. What have you been up to?? I live in Strathroy, just west of London and work as a communicator for the Strathroy Police Service. Again, great to see you on the site and look forward to seeing more from you.

Hey all, still waiting for my activation Email, gonna send an Email to the Rgtl Adjt this afternoon. Whytie, I remember your name but can't put a face to it, sorry man, maybe it's the age thing, LOL. Well Terry I retired from the reg force last year after 28yrs, and am now Class B here in Kingston as the BCWO assistant. As I am here in Kingston, I'll post some good info about the Reunion this summer either on Randy Watts's Reunion 08 post or on my own, hope everyone can make it down, looking forward to having some drinks with the boys again. Anyway in the top picture, Danny Coombs is the guy in the centre standing in Civies, to the left of him, isn't that Kevin Walsh? And in the bottom row kneeling third from the right is Dwayne McCarthy, also to the right of Danny Coombs I think is a guy by the name of Steve(?) Giffin. The pic with the guy playin with the reel of something, Sigs guy first name Dean, can't remember the last name, anyway hoping to be a member soon so I can post normally, later guys.
