Ok, all Bullshit aside, The Reunion was an outstanding affair on the Presentation right through to the Dinner. The Airborne Social Club and its many helpers deserve a medal for such a successful event. From what I can Remember I met a shitoad of troops I haven't seen in years and every nite it was always someone new. I made new friends and even met a Former Member of the Canadian SAS.....wicked, as per SOP, he was an outstanding man and a professional soldier.

Sorry its taken so long to update this page but I'm soon to be on a road move to Edmonton..yeha!...Home Station. I have more to follow on the different pages with some more pages to add.

As I have now been recently released from the Forces after 16 yrs of dedicated service (sometimes, hee,hee,hee) for being medically unfit to perform tasks such as to carry a heavy ruck, run like the wind, and do route marches of 10 -15 K's, even though I did this for years before becoming a cook, all I have to say is what a bunch of wankers. I now have the right to voice my opinion on what it was like to be in the Service and serve with The Canadian Airborne Regiment. Strange as it was, being in the Service, really was a blast. This is a small part of me on the Web.Enjoy the Pic's and Things.
"Infamous Rebel Flag"

I want to clear things up about my thoughts of 2 Commando's Rebel Flag. When I served with the Airborne, that flag was a symbol of brotherhood within 2 CDO and too others also. Every party we had or when we were in the bush on exercise or Ops, some trooper would pull out a rebel flag and put it on the side of the tent, with everyones approval, except for an officer's. A friend of mine who was an officer and black marched in the colour party for a parade rehearsal carrying the rebel flag prior <2cdo pride> to switching to our Airborne Colours for the actual parade . As for the clowns who said it had to do with Racist and White Power Horse S---, they should of been with us to experience the rush of serving in an elite unit(The Best) and the brotherhood that everyone shared regardless of their colour or religion. The Flag meant a special breed of men(sure we had hell raisers, but you could depend on them in a moments notice) In 2 PPCLI it was the flag was the symbol of the Battalion Hockey Team called "Rebels"(I never once heard any negative comments about the Flag, go figure). And everyone including the higher ups loved the team without thinking about the other meaning of the flag! What really pisses me off is when all these so-called critics and the news media, start to beak off about how Canada's Airborne Regiment is a disgrace to Canada!. Yes, something terrible happened in Somalia and for most, it will not go away. But that incident and all the misinformation and backstabbing that occurred resulted in the disbandment of Canada's Finest Regiment. So all you glory seeking critics and press if you want the truth about something that is not in your field of expertise Ask before you print alot of horse s--- on something you know nothing about. Please don't judge a book by its cover,get the facts straight first oh, sorry you already did the damage, Thanks, You Paraniod Freaks!

Just to sumup about the above mentioned, The rebel flag was used only for a rally point for the troops to let off some steam. The only true loyalty was to the Canadian Airborne Regiment and the brotherhood everyone shared being paratroopers.
