Bytown Militaria Collectors' Association talk on CMCs Mar 7 2012
E3161 Victoria Edwards (RMC 2003) presented on Military College insignia memorialized in various media (silk, silver, stone, stamps, stained glass, etc.) at the Bytown Militaria Collectors' Association (BMCA) original scheduled for Dec 7 2011 was held on Wednesday March 7 at 19:30 hrs. Her powerpoint slideshow and talk was based on her ongoing research as a staff writer for e-veritas (RMC Club alumni journal) for which she was awarded the RMC Club President's Award.
16147 Maj Brett Stewart (RRMC 1987) brought his collection of RRMC uniforms, badges and photos for the show-and-tell part of the meeting. The BMCA meets at the Warrant Officers' & Sergeants Mess GGFG/CHofO WOs and Sgts Mess which is INSIDE Cartier Square Drill Hall, 2 Queen Elizabeth Driveway in Ottawa, Ontario on the first Wednesday of each month (except Jul and Aug) at 19.30 hrs. A number of BMCA members are either serving or ex-military, or work for DND. BMCA members share an interest in all things militaria and bring militaria in for the show-and-tell part of the meeting. Artefacts of note during the BCMA members show and tell include a carved RMC tea tray; several cartoons by the late 1958 Brigadier-General (Ret`d) Alan Connelly (RMC 1927); and a collection of RMC badges.

Royal Roads Military College uniforms, pins, buttons, etc
Hi all,
Maj. Brett Stewart (RRMC 1987), my copresenter, and I took some photos of his Royal Roads Military College uniforms, badges, yearbook and militaria for the show-and-tell part of our talk at the Bytown Militaria Collectors' Association (BMCA) on Wednesday March 7 at 19:30 hrs. Perhaps you may find them of interest. Victoria Edwards (RMC 2003) Last edited by Victoria Edwards; 09-03-12 at 06:22 PM. |

Display Box
You may find the display case that my copresenter, Maj Brett Stewart put together for the Bytown Militaria Collector`s Association talk of interest. I am curious about display boxes of militaria in general, and those displaying Canadian Military Colleges militaria in particular.
