Dear C&E Association Members, Our Association has been advised that the Gunners have organized another battlefield tour similar to what was done in 2017 when we celebrated the 100th anniversary of Vimy Ridge. This 2018 tour will be to Sicily and Italy specifically recognizing Operation Husky – the invasion of Sicily that took place on 10 July 1943. To set the stage and to give individuals a sense of our Signals contribution to this theatre of war, Joe Costello has put together a short summary highlighting the Royal Canadian Corps of Signals involvement in Op Husky. This excellent summary is available at http://www.rcsigs.ca/index.php/Operation_Husky_and_Canadian_Signals. Joe will continue to add to this material as it becomes available through other research. As in 2017, the Gunners have graciously offered space on the tour to our C&E Association members. Information on the itinerary and cost is included in the attached document. The tour is again being coordinated through the Fields of Fire organization and supported by Merit Travel in Kingston. Please note that there is an early sign up incentive for the first five members of our Association who commit to the tour. The first five members to sign up will receive 50,000 Aeroplan […]
