Default 400th anniversary of Quebec city

Hello All,

This year is the 400th anniversary of the city of Quebec. This city is the first one in North-America created by Samuel de Champlain in 1608. Next summer, there will be a big military and historic parade which will take place on July 3rd and which is organized by the Royal 22nd Regiment.

In this parade, there will be certainly near 500 reenactors of all Canadian and American military eras since the colonial period until Timor Oriental War and more than 2 000 servicemen with their light, medium, heavy and Armoured vehicles of the Canadian Forces. All the re-enactors will be parked for two days on the Pains of Abraham (see this website http://www.ccbn-nbc.gc.ca/_en/batailles.php?section=1) and peoples can come to visit camps, equipments and HMVs. It will be a real journey in the time and the history for all passionate persons of the Canadian military history.

In this parade, we expect that we shall be about thirty HMVs and for those who wish to come to meet us, it will be a pleasure to know you and to take with you the glass of the friendship
