    Always meant to visit. Thanks for sharing.
    I did my basic regular force engagement (4 yrs) in the early 90's and finished at CFB Esquimalt near Victoria. I spent my whole service time on Canadian soil so I don't have any exciting stories.
    I was supposed to be assigned to the HMCS Saskatchewan (262) and I negotiated my way out with the career officer because there was only 6 months left in my contract. The same year I ended service, the Saskatchewan was reefed near Nanaimo, BC.
    I'll always remember the Bombardier Iltis. What a horrible vehicle. I'm glad they went with the G wagon as a replacement for people on actual operations. It probably saved some lives. I read that they are planning on replacing the G wagon now.

    When you said, " it's interesting what humanity does to humanity for some bodies' quest and it's not the peoples quest." Yesterday for some reason I looked up how many war's the USA has been in since 2003 and wars that they have been instrumental in with supplying weapons. I was utterly shocked at all that wars that has gone on all over the world since that date. I was dumbfounded to discover how large the list was. INcluding all the wars that American military weapon suppliers has funded by the US, Sweden, Germany, Canada, England the UK and you name it. The military industrial war complex and the Medical industrial complex and even the Schoolboard has so much power over the masses it's freaking scary. You think the war museum brings out emotion, I went to the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Israel when I walk out of the building I was completely overwhelmed almost broke down bawling my eyes out. I was shocked to my core. I couldn't believe what I saw, I was utterly shocked at what man could do towards another human being. I had to be alone for a half hour or more before I could go and join back up with the group that we had come with.

    One of my favourite videos youve done yet avery. Hopefully places like this remind us all to never let war like that happen again. Unfortunately, the way everyone around the world folded and got there vaccines and fell into line without so much as a second thought suggests that if the government recommend it,,, the people will blindly follow.
