Ottawa Veterans Event

Mike Timoshyk · #1 03-09-10, 18:00

I have been in contact with the Canada Remembers program of the Dept of Vet Affairs with respect to the Military Muster. The program coordinator asked if I would inquire about a display of military vehicles in Ottawa in November. She would like to find an OPI who would provide some assistance from the MV community. Anyone out there interested? If so PM me and I will provide POCs.

The people at VAC in Ottawa already have my contact information as i have been dealing with them over the last 6 years or more pertaining to military vehicles and piping. She just has to ask Peter, Ian or Terry and they will provide my contact info.

Thanks
Eric

Don't forget OPI also means "ONLY PERSON INTERESTED'

November is now upon us, what is the status of the "Military Muster"?

When and where is it?

Anything going on for the National Event on the 11th?

Veterans Affairs has not contacted me pertaining to any vehicles for a VAC event.

They never have MV's at the National Memorial Service on the 11th Nov.

I have heard that there is a Legion event on 04 Nov at Billings Bridge Shopping Plaza. Carl Marcott is planning on attending. I beleive it is part of Veterans Week.
