| 1. I have two cousins in the RCR's. |

My brother retired six years ago. He just got a call to re-up. "You won't have to leave the country. Honest." He has no intention of re-uping.
The cousins havn't gone over yet.

| 2. I have four in the service now |
|
One is in Afghanistan that we have not heard from in almost 3 weeks and are starting to be concerned .
One is stationed in Ottawa and is coming up on 25 yrs service so he is not going anywhere . One stationed in Quebec who is expecting to go over but has no idea when and one that is in boot camp right now .
The one that is in Afghanistan now tells us a very different story then what you see and hear in the press . He is generally positive about what is going on over there and believes they are making a difference .
