Harry - Thanks for the info. We'll be in Kelowna next week and I'll make a point of getting to the Museum, more's the better if our visit coincides with the Dragoons 100th anniversary. Thanks again for the info. Best wishes - Jerry

Visited the Kelowna military museum yesterday and recommend it's worth visiting, very friendly folk and good displays. One of the features is about Flowerdew VC who went to school in our hometown of Framlingham in UK. Small world!! Jerry
