Thank you to so many of you who supported Dad - Buck Arbuckle - in his last days and lent moral support to me, his only child, as I accompanied him on his journey of failing health.
Dad had so much respect and admiration for the people he worked with. I often heard about many of you, but it is only now that I am beginning to have an inkling of the tremendous work you all did for Canada.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas!

Haven't checked out the site in many a moon or is that summers... I am presently hanging my hat in Nokia, Finland. Yes that Nokia... bet many of you thought it was Korean or something. Nope this is where it all started in 1867 when Nokia made galoshes ... then cellular phones. The tire factory is just down the road "Nokian Tyres" ... Anyway .. lots of familiar names in the guest register ... can't believe it's been more than 10 yrs since I pulled the plug ... my how time flies ...
Regards to all ...

From the son of Ted Warren, hello and best wishes to all those who might have worked with my Dad. I thank the men and women who maintain/support this wonderful site and for keeping the memories alive. Kudos!

I found the site only today (in a very round-about way) while conducting research on a late uncle (Dad's brother-in-law/my Mom's brother) who was killed in Normandy in '44 while serving with the Royal Canadian Corps of Signals.

Long story short; Bill Lockhart was mentioned in one of my "Sigs" books, which got me thinking about Dad (who'd worked for Col. Lockhart years ago at EA), and here I am.

Dad didn't speak much of what he did at EA for all those years, but from this site and Buck Arbuckle's excellent overview of EA/DFAIT "Communications", I now have some idea what he was doing when disappearing overseas for sometimes weeks at a time. Was also neat to see a few pics of Dad taken at the reunion the year before?? he died in 2005.

Best regards to all.

Hello Everybody, Glad to be in touch. I'm still scrubbing newsprint off my fingers thinking about you all and the truly scrumptious meals that we enjoyed together!

Hope that you are all well. Unfortunately, I had a bit of a hang-over with strokes, and have had to take refuge in a 'stroke shelter'.

It would be great to hear from any of you who are so inclined.

Best wishes, Don

Another one down.

Been a long time since I had a look at this site. reviewing the "final comps" page brought back many great memories. Congratulations to those who keep this up to date.
