Post retirement opportunities for Gunners...

Seems to be a few Gunners running for Parliament in the next election. One out on the west coast for the Conservatives and one for the Liberals in our backyard in Orleans. Dean Drysdale is a former Commanding Officer of 15th Field Artillery Regiment in Vancouver and I'm sure a few of the Ottawa Gunners have crossed paths with him in the past. While I'm sure that most of our membership has surely had the opportunity of speaking to Andrew Leslie either as a fellow member of the Ottawa Gunners or in his previous career in the Army which culminated in his appointment as the Army Commander.

Since 1981, he has served in the Canadian Army Reserves, currently with a rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Trained as an artillery officer, he commanded the 15th Field Regiment, RCA from 2001 to 2004. In 2004, he was appointed Canadian vice-president of the CIOR, which is the NATO association of Reserve Officers. Since 2008, he has served as a Regional Liaison Officer attached to the Joint Task Force Pacific HQ.  He attended the Militia Command and Staff College and has taught as a civilian on the U.S. Marine Corps Command and Staff College as well as participating in the Persian Gulf War as a journalist attached to the Egyptian Army.
