CdnArtyWife said:I grew up in Annapolis Royal, and then as an adult lived in the old Q's (after the base closed down) with my hubby before he joined...so I love to hear stories about Cornwallis from people who were trained/posted there.
I hope some of you are willing to share your stories/memories.

I was in 9 pl. 7836 (start early Sep 78) but the first part of the quote is perfectly correct. As to looking back it would of done us no good any way. After a couple days delay in leaving due to bad weather we left in a heavy snow storm with almost no visibility. Missed the plane at Greenwood & had to bus to Halifax to catch it but only after they held it there for us.angus said:the cold and wet, typical complaints throughout , but when that bus pulled out after it was all over, a lot of faces looked back.
