Vimy Ridge 5 gun salute*
This does not render it justice at all but what a nice demonstration of gunnery skills we had at Fort Rodd Hill.
6 guns did a 100 round quick fire gun salute and it was amazing. 2030 hr local Esquimalt and 0530 hr Vimy France time, the instant it all started 100 years ago. We shall remember them.

HMCS Yellowknife
Went on a sail yesterday on a MCDV ( Mine sweeper ) HMCS Yellowknife.
I was very impressed by the CO and his crew . True dedicated professionals . While I was very interested in their work, I could not help notice a very nice pair of ... .50 cal BMG's on the upper deck . That box is full with 100 rds of live ammo and ready to go ! I like pairs of anything. Pairs are good. These would look good on some of our member's vehicles for sure .
