Russell L.E. Girden President
The New Year is come upon us. I hope that everyone had a very special holiday season and wish everyone a prosperous New Year.
As seen on the Web site, a lot of work has gone into the design of the pin being issued this year with the remittance of your annual dues. I would like to personally thank Mr Dave Bawden for his time and efforts in producing this. The pin is designed to recognize the dedication of our members who served within the Military Police Trade, be it in the Regular or Reserve force. The pin is in no way to be considered as an official DND recognition pin, it is merely a memento and is not intended to be in competition with the Military Police proper or the CMPA.
As I mentioned in my Christmas message, jackets and wallets are presently in the designing stages. We can anticipate these to be available soon. The jackets will be offered to members, with a commitment to purchase, once the final design is confirmed.
A meeting with the Association Executive and other members of the International Police is expected soon. This meeting is designed to help our Association grow, and become an International Brotherhood of Military Police. Any ideas and suggestion would be greatly appreciated, as this is only the first stepping stone for the growth of a worth group of members who truly believe in the motto "To Honour and Remember'
Please forward your annual dues to the appropriate address noted on the web site, and lastly always remember "strength is though growth.
For
all members renewing their 2012 annual membership we are supplying this new
"Veteran pin". These are currently being made and will be sent out
as soon as possible. Pins can also be purchased for $5.00 plus shipping. Please
note that you will be asked to verify your service prior to purchase.

| Your help is needed
to build this great memorial. Construction is planned to begin this
summer. Please join all Canadians coast to coast who have already been
giving to this Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial Fund. This is not a
government initiative, but solely funded by Canadians honoring Canadian
soldiers. Individuals, companies and organizations are all welcome to
contribute to the fund to complete the $1.5 million dollar project.
Donations, no matter how small, will make this a reality. |
