St. George's Day
Today was St. George’s Day. Saint George is the patron saint of England and also of my Army regiment, the King’s Own Calgary Regiment (RCAC).
Every year, the Regiment celebrates St. George’s Day with a regimental parade. This year’s parade was a mixed sad/happy event as we said goodbye to Honorary Colonel Lennard who is retiring but celebrated the promotion of Senator Hays from Lieutenant Colonel to Colonel.
Finally, I can’t mention St. George’s Day without saying a fine ’G’Day!’ to my good friend (and former King’s Own soldier) JR who joined the Royal Marine Commandos last year.
