There is not a lot of content yet as it is a work in progress,There is only two of us well only really one (me) but I have 5 or 6 return to work guys at any time, these are mostly guys that have PTSD,so i try to employ them to keep there minds at ease.
There is also a face book page just look up New Brunswick military history museum.

I Really should join the Ontario Regt Museum and help with it..however after running the Camp X Museum in Whitby for 6 years..and having to close it and "Lend" on long term...all the artifacts...many from BSC Headquarters in New York.....to a Gov Agency in Ottawa...my heart is somewhat out of it

However we MUST Carry On....gotta save something!!!

If it is any encouragement, the "base commander" for CFSU (Ottawa) has spread the word to a few Ottawa collectors about getting a broad sample of vehicles for displays at various buildings around the city. So, the carrier outside Cartier Square Drill Hall isn't going to be the only public display. Connaught has a handful of vehicles, but not nearly enough.

You'd think concrete pads would be easy to get done. But apparently every pencil-swinging staff type has to have his say in what happens on base. Got any pull with the Construction Engineers at the CER or the survey students at CFSME? Forms and readi-mix, with a set of site drawings ... Actually, let me work the tech net on the surveying.

Thank you for giving the Return to Work troops something to do with their days. I had a succession of failed baby pilots reporting to me for a while. A grown man needs to know the institution of the Forces cares. They accepted what I could do with/for them, but there was one SOB who still had thought other work was beneath him. He wasn't stressed; he was just a jerk.

Terry, If Command wants something to put around as gate guards put the bug in his ear that he has to contact DHH to get on the list of bases and museum that want items....We have a national stock compound that we can draw from.
We have tryed the CFSME route...dident work out so well.
Truth is we are working on plans for a new museum that will have ample room to house the collection indoors or for the most part of it anyway.
My work shop alone has been given 100x100 space.
Its hard for us to draw from units as we are a base museum, the units on base all have there own regimental museums,2RCR has theres in london,and so on.
CFSME is the only one however they brought there museum with them when they left chillawack.
Here are few pictures of the compound that we draw from sometimes,Some new stuff is kept here also.
All m-113 and m109s minus one in the back corner are do to be distroyed this winter.
Jason
