[RifleDude]

Probably the units that last won these trophys?

 

[thebigbully]

I doubt it's the service battalion or the 1 Field Am.

 

[1VP25mm]

Quiet you fool. I'll slide you para 6 to delete this thread.

 

[SteyrSSG]

Missing trophies

Hmmm if the bigbully doesn't hav'em ... maybe they should check the hanger at Mountainview east of Trenton........

 

[NavyShooter]

None of those hidden in my backpocket....but I have the General Vanier Trophy (Top 16 person team, combined Rifle and Pistol) on my desk at work.

[horseman]

Got the last two certificates for # 10, but have never seen the actual hardware.

 

[The Queens Medalist 8687]

1 service rifle and about 8 in other catagories. That might be a clue. Perhaps disappeared from where all were being stored, if they had already been returned.

 

[RobSmith]

Surplussed ? Now THAT would be funny, if pathetic.

Years ago in the the early 80's a Gand SF won the top tryo, and when it cam to ship the trophy back, the wooden shipping box it had come in had disapeared from the Sgts mess, in fact it was up in the attic above the mess at the barrie armouries, guess some one wanted the box lol.
