Dear forum members,

In 2013, I donated Peter Ford’s KL 1943 Ford to the Regimental Museum in Calgary curated by Captain Peter Boyle. The museum was in the process of major renovation at the time, but hopefully is well established now. There, I was told, it would be kept indoors, in running order, under the care of a knowledgeable and caring mechanic. I have not yet been updated as to whether it is on display at this time or when it might be, but it was my hope that it would be and that I could take my family to see it from time to time. I hope it’s home will be a good one.

Sorry it couldn’t be Shilo, Rob! It was a base my dad would mention now and again, and just in the way he would say it, you knew he had great respect for it, and driving not too far from it the other day, brought that back to mind.

Another loose end:

CMP 84 convention- I started to digitize my copy of it a long while back and completed half. Then major renos happened in my basement. I will attempt to refind and finish the digitization and I think I could put it on YouTube. Sadly, the audio is indeed difficult to understand. Too difficult for an amateur like me, but perhaps others with more contextual understanding could make more of it and even subtitle.

Update: The 5 reels of the 1984 CMP Seminar can be viewed on Youtube here:
