Since we all wore the same college uniforms, many of us had no idea about our classmates’ environmental affiliation, never mind their MOC/occupation. While some of us were lucky enough to run in to one another during the course of our careers, others we have not seen since leaving the colleges. Partly inspired by John Carr’s 10th Anniversary yearbook, in which he included updates for many of the guys, and partly by some of the very interesting and often pretty impressive things we learned about the guys while doing the website, the purpose of this section of the website is to allow each classmate the opportunity to tell us where they are now and what they are doing and also, if they feel so inspired to share stories about their life and careers.
Later, during Op Reconnect, Dwight Davies decided to get his rook mates to give him a Reader’s Digest version of their careers so the first part of the list will be for Recruit Flights, with a cross reference to the Classmates names in the alphabetical portion:

Class Notes: We originally decided to call this section Classmate Biographies and so we scanned a copy of a dictionary page with the word “biography”, along with a definition. Later on, it seemed more appropriate to be less formal and simply call the section: Where are they now? We still wanted to keep the scan of dictionary page, because it actually has a Class of 79 link! The dictionary is the Gage Canadian Dictionary (1983) which was originally edited in part by Dr Walter S Avis, not only the Dean of Canadian Forces Military Colleges - UTPM ,and Pete’s Dad, but also an honourary graduate of our Class. In fact, the inscription on the inside reads “To the memory of Dr Walter S. Avis 1919-1979 scholar and teacher of Canadian English.”
