Summer Intern

In 1977, Major Ian Newby of 15th Artillery Field Regiment was visiting Woolwich, England when a number of old cannon barrels were uncovered during the excavation for a housing project on the site of an old ordnance factory. The London County Council offered the barrels to the Royal Artillery at Woolwich. Major Newby made a request for two of the barrels to be donated to the 15th Field Artillery Regiment and after a bit of paper work, the barrels were ours. Now the problem was how to get them to Vancouver. See more...
