The Vancouver Sun compiles a list of Reserve unit activities that includes the 102nd Coast Regiment putting in a week of training with the 5th Coast Regiment under the guidance of the Canadian Artillery School staff on Vancouver Island. "Plenty of firing was done".
Officers' Mess
Social Events
It appears that the CO is rather adamant on his officers attending the social events, "The Officers Commanding expects that all Officers and their ladies will attend this function."  While undated, the last note is from the CO regarding the New Years Day Levee, "the reception in our Mess on New Years Day is a Parade."
Mess Constitution
​The document is undated but we do know that the 102nd Coast Regiment was formed on 29 September 1949 and amalgamated with 43rd Heavy Anti-Aircraft Regiment RCA on 31 December 1954. The document is also untitled and I would suggest that it is the “Standing Orders” for the Officers’ Mess. Interesting parts include, “a member of the Mess in good standing for three years or more will receive a silver cigarette box suitably engraved on retirement”,  “no ladies name shall be mentioned and the topics of religion or politics shall never be discussed in the mess”, “to say grace which will be done while everyone is seated”  and “a bugler will call the officers mess call or the Ingledow battery will be fired.”
