Testimonials
"I was privileged to be gifted the Pictorial History by Bruce
Kadonoff [the British Columbia Regiment Commanding Officer] and RSM
Arden at a recent BC Dragoons event that we were mutually attending.
After three days of looking at it I can confidently state it is - by far
- the best Regimental Pictorial History I have ever seen. Well done to
all."
Lieutenant-General (Retired) Jack Dangerfield, CMM, MSC, CD
Note – General Dangerfield was the most senior Canadian soldier ever
assigned to NATO
"We’re using this book as an example for our company of how to do a
book; we’re proud of this project."
