Hi Sapperman

I'll keep my eyes open for anything and let you know if/as I come across anything ..... and thanks for the bits of military history about this area!

Here's a link for some history/memorabilia items that I just found:

http://www.fortsteele.bc.ca/exhibits...emorabilia.asp

Actually, since starting my geneology and family history searches which led me to places like MLU ... and now having been a member here for (3 ???) years, it's pretty automatic that I notice military type things immediately and think of you lot in here immediately ... a couple of doors down from me is a collector or some such of old metal/parts ... don't know what they're for, but keep planning to ask the owner if he ever gets, or knows of, any old WW2 vehicles and/or parts near by.

This town is a "railway" and "mining" town, so there's that sort of memorabilia too. This "neighbor" just has a huge 2 story shed in his back yard behind his house and am sure it's full of stuff. Maybe his stuff is all railway/mines related, but ya never know what he might have or know about in the area.

So you see, I'm looking out for you-all in here
