Scotty turned to the dark side and went WSPOL around '82.  Saw him once in Wainwright, he was working at the Betty Lake plant, about 4 years later.  That was the last I saw of him.

 

[SprCForr]

He left Wainwright in '99 IIRC. I can't remember where he got posted to.

Jeff funny you should mention that because after posting the photo I was looking at who's who in the Zoo and for the life of me I can't remember his name but no it is not Roger Kishi (this is before his time) and besides they guy was Hong Kong Chinese,really nice guy.

Roger Kishi made Sgt. and left 6FD yrs ago,he still lives in N.Van I believe.

Hi Jeff,since Kat has nudged the old timers I was a bit peeved in the photo because of the easterner's attitude,back then I was full of piss and vinegar and wanted to learn everything,for those guy's it was way for pokie over the winter back home in the Maritimes or on the Rock as back in the 70's there was no job's to be had.
Plus what a charade to pose for the course photo! :

[Spr.Earl]

Some will remember this name "Joey Boston"
The last  time I met him was when Mike Hartling was on his last RSS posting to 6FD at a party we had.
At that time he was mixed up with the movie biz.

Now there are a couple of names from the past, Joey and I were on Eagle river project together.... As well as a certain ex where we were tasked to build an expedient crapper.... Joey placed the resting pole so high a certain Sgt used it, spun around a support tree twice and fell flat on his a$$.... Good times.....

 

[Kat Stevens]

Joe Boston ended up selling hot tubs up around my old stomping grounds, Pender Harbour area if I remember correctly.  Huggy's last job was LFWA RSM, boy done good for himself!

I didn't see or hear anything of Flash upon his posting out of 4CER in 82..... He appears to have dissapeared, he wasn't in CFSME when I was posted there in 84....

 

[Kat Stevens]

He went to 2CER for a while, then the school, then to 1CER.  I think he did another 4CER tour, then poof!

 

[Spr.Earl]

Old gray matter just kicked in
Was he the W.O. who was charged along with a Cpt. with negligent homicide when a young lad was electrucuted in Zygon a few years ago?The W.O.'s name was Gordon if I remember correctly.
