 Chris, 
  
 Sorry for taking so long reply but it has been busy down here. Canada 
 Day and July 4th kept me hopping.

 The deployment to Egypt was part of the MFO Peacekeeping Forces. I wore 
 an Orange beret instead of the blue UN beret. I did flight advisory 
 services for aircraft monitoring the Egyptian/Israeli border during my 
 tour there. It was an unforgettable adventure.

 Glad to hear you've kept in touch with some of the alumni. I've wondered 
 what happened to some of them over the years. 
  
 Do you remember Anna-Lisa McAnally? She moved down here last year. She's 
 now Anna-Lisa Barnes and married to a Major also on exchange down here. 
 She's a proud Mom of 2 little girls.

 Tell me about it. Twenty years ago I was in Shearwater flying on my 
 Power Scholarship. Time flies if you're looking and flies faster if 
 you're not.

 Tracey and I have definitely talked about it. It all depends on where we 
 are posted when our kids are Cadet age. If we are out of country it may 
 be a bit harder. Who knows what the future will bring!
