Where did you get the very cool Cougar shirt?

Hi John :-)

When the collecting bug bites it bites deep. A great display of trinketry. Excellent.

I have a very rare Colt 45 New Service that was the 12th gun issued to Squadron C of the Lord Strathcona Horse Royal Canadian Calvary in WW1. The LSHRC Squadron was the unit where Lt. Flowerdew served. Where would be the best place to offer it foe sale so a Canadian Calvary collector could buy it ? Thanks.

Very interesting and well presented.🇬🇧

Great content, very well presented.

Very Informative! Thanks!

Keep.it up John ,great work.

I live in Australia, Army reserve Infantry a very long time ago. Also, a member of the Victorian branch of the Corps of Commissionaires who were sadly disbanded after ANZAC day two weeks ago. I collect grenade cap badges (Grenadier, Fusilier, Artillery) and Canadian cloth shoulder titles. Only found your channel last week, great subject, great presentation and great collection. Keep it up mate! Subbed.

My father was in the Canadian HLI. He was sent in "green" to the beaches of D-Day. That's it. That is the extent that I know of my father's experience. He/we suffered from his PTSD. Could you give me any info on the Highland Light Infantry?

keep going buddy, these are all great videos!

They served in gagetown

nice video

The brass centurion tank badges remind me of the green felt staghounds on the 19 Alberta Dragons battledress, both were forward facing on the arms above the stripes

Where’s the RECCE trade badge, the little armoured car

My grandfather served in this regiment during ww2 and was there during the liberation of the Netherlands, very cool.

very informative.... Tanx Brother!

loving the channel!

*promo sm*

I don’t believe they ever went to Africa. They weee the RECCE regiment for the 2nd Canadian Corps in Europe. I’d be interested in seeing the badge. Cheers

I think I have a Manitoba dragoons cap badge sand cast in Egypt or India ? Does that work in with where they were stationed? Maybe North Africanww2

Great Video John Thanks

The American helmet makes me think of Oddball from Kelly’s Hero’s myself. Ironically a Canadian playing an American.

Great information in this video. Well researched!

Great first video John

Keep up the good work. Interesting videos you're producing

Good starting point John. Makes all the difference!
