So I had a quick word with the Executive VP of the engineer association today. I told him about the find. It turns out the combat divers have an association of their own, and they are having an anniversary reunion this year. He thought it would be in Chilliwack. Your expert is Doug Corman. If he didn't know the stories, he'll know who does. I'll edit this thread if I get any contact information
So, there you have it.

Will look for the contact name when you link it Terry.
I visited the CFB engineering historical museum on saturday and even became a memeber (allowing access to the library). Met with some retired sappers and discussed the find. No one could recall the loss in particular but I gained a better idea of the lay of the land of some sites used for bridging/rafting exercises. Most interesting was the information that the area I found the boats and Bailey panels in was an original bridging site back in the 1940's so the location makes more sense than I originally thought. I am returning to the museum tomorrow to look at more books and will hopefully diving the site on thursday wherin I will record the ID info listed on the side of the boats. |
