Heaven will probably be gun-free, so top-up now!


Cougar Salvo 07 kept me very busy and very interested and very cold for a week.






Thanks to 39th Brigade for all the guns and all the fun.
The lady in the one pic is the Lt. Governor of BC. Check out her website for some more pics.
Also, "Truth, Duty, Valour" will be doing a show on the exercise, (I got some screen time... famous!) check it out this June.
Rock on.
Stv.

PS. Cougar Salvo 07 was a three-block-war exercise; peacekeeping, humanitarian aid, and warmaking. The main goal was to flush out the insurgents while promoting good relations with regular village folk. The ex involved the Vanc. P.D., RCMP, Vanc. ERT, Navy, Air Force, 39th Brigade (Army), and the Canadian Rangers!
Far out.
Special thanks to my lovely wife for herding the wee ones for a week while I played in the big sandbox!

Amazing, Steve. That's so far out of "normal life" that the images are quite jarring. The macho guys, threatening equipment and total firepower...pretty intense.

Hi Steve, nice page. The Rangers did a great job up in Comox, I have not forgot about sending you some video of the exercise, there is lots of good shots of you working. Captain Joe J from Kamloops, Rocky Mountain Rangers.

Steve.
