Support the Troops!

The intent of the Support the Troops page is to highlight corporations that support the 15th Field Artillery Regiment RCA members through direct donations to our troops welfare or by corporate discounts that enable the soldier to stretch his dollars a little further. Corporations that wish to have their services presented on this page may contact the Vancouver Artillery Association president at  president.vcrgunners@gmail.com for further details.
For regimental members: Please drop me a note and let me know how your experience with these opportunities worked out. We'll pass your comments onto our supporters!
