William Morrison I started Gr. 1 in Hemer. We rode the school bus from Balve each day for three years. I'll always remember the ride. Someone posted a photo somewhere of the Gr. 3 class that I'm in. I think there may be others. My sister Claire was one year ahead of me. Our father was Pay Corps and I remember lots of RCHA and QOR people. After a year in Fredricton/Gagetown 1961, our family ended up in Ottawa. I've been back to Hemer/Balve in 1989 and again in 1995 and 2008. I'll try posting photos sometime when I'm back in Canada.

Lynn Jeffrey What a wonderful site.....brought back so many happy memories of my time in Germany.....where has all time gone! My father was with the 3 RCHA. I lived at 9F Berliner Strasse with my parents John and Kathleen Mills and brothers Robert, Gary and sister Jan. I attended Hemer elementary school GR. 2 & 3 and Hemer Junior School Gr. 4 (Miss Alford) & Gr. 5 (Miss Hoath). Would be lovely to hear from anyone who might remember me from that time.

Robert Yewchuck I really enjoy this site and visit it often. Can anyone share photos of Engineers from Exercise Rob Roy in September of 1967 and other general photos of 1 troop. I am also interested in photos from 156 platoon Can. Guards Depot in 1965-1966, 40 Section RCSME in 1966, and Support Squadron CFB Chilliwack 1966-1967. February 14, 2012
Richard Leslie Parry Just found this site tonight thanks to a band member Gaels of Fundy Pipes & Drums who lived in Werl 59 -62.

Gary Stronach Just came back to the Guest book to leave a bit of sad news. Cliff Mackay whose father Major Mackay was the Mayor of Hemer during my stay there has passed away. Cliff attended RMC and went on the several high positions within the Ontario Government and several other high profile positions. He was a great guy during our school years and went on to be a great man in industry. A great loss for the Hemer Alumni. He is the second of our cohort to pass on, Brooks Chand'Oiseau passed away last year. Time passes and so do great friends. January 30, 2012

Howard C. (Howie) Pierce My last Guest Book Entry Jun 2006 -- I expect many of the old soldiers are now at the stage of getting too old or forgetful to add comment of the time we spent in and around the Canadian Brigade while it was stationed with the British Army on the Rhine. Viewing the photo section how over the years the buildings and Forts are now crumbling into the ground very little left of what it once was. Because of how this site has over the years kept the memories alive this old soldier appreciates its exceptional value as a point of history in his life. Thank you all for recording our military contributions in the "Cold War". December 16, 2011
