D-Day + 63 years
 

Hi All,

Some photos from the annual D-Day reception held at the Chiefs and WO's Mess at CFB Stadacona in Halifax. Our re-enactment Unit has been attending this Veteran Reception for the past 7 years representing the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion. A first class event for D-Day Vets! First real event my carrier has been to, the Base Chief was a bit concerned about it chewing up his asphalt, but I convinced him otherwise. :-)

I wish I could have continued with you guys Brad. Great looking carrier...
My uncle drove one onto the beaches in Normandy on June 6th with the North Novies...

Brad: Absolutely great shots of your carrier.

Did you park it deliberately in front of the Chapel so that the Padre could put in the fix, hoping that your Ford flattie would start? :devil: :D

Hey Allan,

What the heck are you doing way out in Sylvan Lake ?

Look me up when you hit the Truro Area.

Brad

John,

Don't know what happened, but it has worked perfect ever since :p
