I'm presently putting together a series of articles about life at Downsview with the 400 Squadron & 2 RSU, based on a journal & my memories from 1978-1982. I don't guarantee the accuracy of any of these accounts. Many of the names are ficticious. Check back for further installments, once they are typed.
Ken Moores has supplied these humorous stories, crossing the bridge of distance & time (he's sent these from Japan).
