Hi Jordan,
Fred Armbruster is restoring the Civil Defence bunker in Edmonton to a museum.Not sure how far along he has progressed but is a member on MLU here and may be an option for you to visit. You can see his website here; http://edmontoncivildefencemuseum.com/ Rob Love had taken me to see Supply Sergeant in the west Edmonton mall years ago when we were there.I found some goodies there but not sure if they are still there or in business yet.Some options.Have fun. Regards,Derk.

Hey All
Supply Sergeant is still in business in the west Ed mall, Stan has sold off all his CMP's and UC's there is not too much to look at anymore and the small museum he has on his property is closed up but does have some very cool vehicles inside. Jordan you will likely have time to go see Supply Sergeant and/or Milarm but not much else. Hope you guys have a great visit. Gary

Thanks all for the suggestions and PM's. It doesn't look like we will have too much free time for a ton of sites. Plus I still have to see what my dad wants to see. I'm his quest after all.

Made it out to Edmonton yesterday around noon. Got to hotel and found out we were within a 10min walk to Milarm. So we walked over but the museum was closed even though we still had an hour according to the sign. Spoke to staff who said to call in morning. Came back to hotel and checked out a small mall in the area for some lunch. Dozed off for the afternoon before our steak dinner with a few players. Had a great time and amazing steak. Today had breakfast with the coaches and team. Nothing like endless bacon and eggs and pancakes. Went back to Milarm today and was let up to see the collection. Very impressed with the variety of stuff he has. Particularly the women's uniforms. Some rather rare stuff. Then we headed over to the West Edmonton Mall. I'm not one for much shopping but wow. The whole Columbus ship replica and sea lions thing was pretty cool. Roller coaster and watermark were neat to see also. Bought a CWAC cap at Supply Sgt. Soon we are headed over to the stadium for the tour and game. They even provided us with jerseys.
