My Dad Remembrance Day 2021

My Dad “Gary Almer Crossman” joined the Royal Canadian Airforce March 24th, 1953 in Saint John N.B., six months before his 19th birthday.

Here we assume he was in training camp.

Here he is with his Mom and Dad before going off to serve. Helen and Elmer Crossman

The first picture here is of my dad with his buddy at Long Beach near Tofino, doing KP. The other two images we believe are of him and his mates stationed in France.

Dad rarely talked about his time in the Armed Forces, other than some funny stories about getting in trouble and having to do KP. He peeled a lot of potatoes.

He was born September 6th, 1934

He passed away July 29th, 2021 and I miss him dearly.
