3059 Joyce, FJ (Fred) Sally and I are retired in Brockville where we enjoy curling, golf, boating and grand parenting which keeps us busy and happy. Twelve years of military service came first. Korea, then aviation, as a fixed and rotary wing aircraft pilot, instructor and test pilot. The army Staff College was followed by NDHQ. In 1965 I retire to join the Defence Research Board. In 1969 Senator Croll selected me to be the Director of the Senate Committee on poverty. This experience led to an appointment in the Treasury Board in 1972. In 1974 I joined DINA as Director of Northern Natural Resources and environment. In 1971 I accepted an executive interchange to Gulf Canada in Toronto as a Corporate Strategic Planner. Cabbagetown and the Blue Jays convinced us to stay in Toronto, so early retirement from the Federal Government followed in 1980. A new career followed as a Consultant primarily involved in multi-image/multi-media productions began. Projects included World Expos and Canada's Aviation Museum of Science and Technology film "Cleared for Takeoff" and the Space Exhibit at the Museum of Science and Technology. This eight year relationship proved to be a great finale to an exciting and diverse working career. 3061 Kaduck, RM (Ray) On graduation from RMC I was posted to Maritime Command and started my Operational flying on the venerable Lancaster and spent most of the next eight years chasing submarines. This included a year of Advanced Electronics training with the USAF in Biloxi Mississippi for which I was presumably selected because of my BA (English)! After my tour in Maritime I spent my first Admin tour in Personnel Branch in Ottawa as the first post-war RMC grad to be involved in university cadet programs. It was probably there that I terminated my military career! Closing Royal Roads was being considered by the Defence Department and the Airforce's view was requested. I wrote our department's position that this would be an extremely unwise move. This was for consideration of my superiors up to the Chief of Personnel. Unfortunately time had run out and there was no one above the rank of Flight Lieutenant available so it was brought back to me for signature! I suspect that the Chief of the Air Staff was curious that a submission in his behalf to the Minister of National Defence was signed by F/L Ray Kaduck. I presume he found out because the atmosphere became rather frosty where I was concerned. I had no trouble having myself posted to Transport Command where I wanted to go in the first place. Most of the rest of my military career was spent flying all over the world. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse ran roughshod over the world in the next eight years and I was never far behind. During These years I spent a lot of time living in hotels and motels so when a conveniently located one came up for sale in Kingston I took early retirement and bought it. A few years later, after the oil crunch, I sold it. I then became a stockbroker until shortly after the crash of 87 when I retired. While all of these events were transpiring, my wife Jane and I managed to bring up seven children. I Directed theatre, coached college football (Queen's) and spent a short time as a psychologist. 3062 Kear, AR (Allen) R.M.C.1949-53; B.A. R.M.C.; after BA.

First project is a freighter trip to Singapore to inspect a new grand daughter...number six. 3071 McLellan, A (Al) Following graduation from RMC, there was the usual waiting around and killing time for three or four months at Trenton and Greenwood, on useless employment, while the 'career manglers' figured out what to do. Finally, it was back to the Air Transport Operational Training Unit in Trenton (for the third time) and then on to 436 Squadron in Lachine on C119 Flying Boxcars. That five-year tour included a six-month posting to Narsarssuak, Greenland, as Detachment Commander for the Overseas Ferry Unit, and six months with the first UN Emergency Force, flying out of Naples, Italy. Next came the instructors' course in Winnipeg, which disrupted but did not foil marriage to Jean Gillis of Moncton, NB. This was followed by four years at Central Navigation School in Winnipeg, then another three years there in Officers' Postings and Careers in Training Command Headquarters. These postings also saw the arrival of two sons. The crafty wiles learned in the postings business netted a one-year plum posting to the International Commission for Supervision and Control in Vietnam, followed by a year at the Staff College in Toronto. Then it was on to Canadian Forces' Headquarters in Ottawa for three years of forging officers' career policy for the newly-homogenized Forces. The 'headquarters escape act' took the form of a three-year tour as CO of 405 Maritime Patrol Squadron in Greenwood, then two years in Lahr, Germany, as both Base Administrative Officer and Senior Staff Officer Personnel and Administration in CF Europe Headquarters. The penalty for not getting it right the first time was a two-year posting back to the Canadian Forces College in Toronto as Deputy Commandant and Air Force Group Director. Another escape led to Halifax as Deputy Commander of Maritime Air Group for a couple of years, followed by a year and a half in London, England at the Royal College of Defence Studies and the Institut Francais du Royaume Uni. It was then back to work as the Base Commander at Greenwood for three years, followed by two years in Halifax as Commander of Maritime Air Group. The law of averages prevailed, and next came National Defence Headquarters in Ottawa for the final three years, in the fun job of what the Canadian Forces should do to survive the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. (Good luck. Ed) Since retirement in Halifax in 1988, the major pursuit has been the pension protection business, as a Vice President of the Federal Superannuates National Association, and as the member representing retirees on the Minister of National Defence's Canadian Forces Pension Advisory Committee. Now, what's this about the Old Brigade? (It's called re-birth. Ed) |
