The RHQ and 99th Bty of the
Field Regt., R.C.A., held their regular
training night and were in, very good
attendance, except for those high
school students who were writing
examiniations.. But we excuse them
as their knowledge will help them
along the road to becoming officers.
So they tell me, anyway.

The main topic of discussion during
the evening was ’the Meaford shoot
and Colonel Bell laid concrete plans
for this week-end exercise giving
every one concerned a job to do. Now
the only thing to hold us back is the
weather, as it did last year. It took
a hurricane to Change the Colonel’s
mind about going.

Well, the spring weather is here and
the band went outside to practice last
training night. With all that fresh
air getting in their lungs they really
practiced in earnest and sounded very
good. We think they were running
in competition with the minstrel show
that was being held at the town hall.
We waited for a few black-faced min
strels to come out with war clubs and
chase, them away, but all went well.

The gun crews trained in the drill
hall under the direction of Capt. H.
D. Thompson and WO2 Jack Black-
well and were really sharp as their
interest is keen for this Meaford
shoot. They are hoping to take first
place for the best shooting, unless an
officer in the observation post tries
to hit a deer on the run, as seemed
the case last year.

The MT^section was busy on "Oper
ation Assembly.’’ By that we mean
that the old truck has been complete
ly painted and being put back to
gether. Let’s hope no parts and
pieces are left over or they may
pour them down the carburator. Sgt.
Dinny Montgomery and Bdr. Wilf.
Arthur assures me they didn’t. Wilf,
who will be instructing on the drivers’
maintenance, thinks the training aid
will'be a real help to the boys and is
going to do his best. And we all
know that what "Pop” Arthur doesn’t
know libout vehicles is not worth
knowing.
