A word from your Commanding Officer
Officers and Miladies of the Fort St. Helen Garrison
I hope you are all staying safe and enjoying the summer months despite the disruption to our usual Regimental activities. While we would normally be enjoying fellowship at events such as the Highland Games, or summer cocktails at the Chateau Ramezay, with Squad performances to the sound of bagpipes, this year is very different. Rest assured, our Command Group has been active, and thinking of new ways to promote the aims of the 78th Frasers in our community. I hope you’ll discover what we have been up to in this issue Fraser Highlanders’ Penny Post Express. Its purpose is to keep you informed as to the various facets of our Regiment, including some educational, and some entertaining articles.
I would also like to take this time to introduce the various members of our very dedicated and loyal Command Group.
· Past-Officer Commanding & Squad Liaison— HLCol R. Paul Goodman
· Recruiting Officers – Milady Diana Wall & Capt. Bryan Carroll
· Communications - Milady Margaret Moore
· Regimental Historian – Major Earl Chapman
· PMC & Educational Officer – Capt-Lt Sean Smith

Other key members of the Command Group:

For those who may not be aware, HLCol Peter Ferst CD, CStJ has recently moved to Victoria, BC and will no longer continue as our Eastern Region Commander. I thank him for all his sound advice and guidance, yet he assures me he will continue to be involved with the Regiment at our Fort Victoria Garrison.
I hope you appreciate the content of our Penny Post Express, and continue to enjoy the summer.
Je Suis Prest.
