Taken on the mezzanine of Mitchell Hall, L to R: Sqdn Ldr Gordon Alderson, Dave Winegar, Eddie Thomas, BGen Beck (Commandant), Chuck Curran, Turk Murphy, and Major Al Osur


Al told Chuck years later that he had to physically hold Mike (Turk) in place - you can sort of see his grip on Mike's arm] Dave Winegar had captained a junior classes win over Royal Roads, Eddie and Mike captained winning the A-Side Championship of the Eastern Rockies Rugby Football Union Tournament. Chuck Curran is holding the C-Side trophy from that tournament.
