The bodies of two Royal Canadian Mounted Police Officers killed in Haiti may be returned to C-F-B Trenton this week.
There are tentative plans for repatriation ceremonies at Eight Wing tomorrow for Sergeant Mark Gallagher and Superintendent Douglas Coates.
A time of day and even an exact day haven’t been set because the congestion at the Port-au-Prince airport causes unscheduled departures and arrivals at destination. The R-C-M-P Public Affairs Office in Ottawa expects to release more information as soon as it is available.
Meanwhile, the latest Canadian soldier to die in Afghanistan Sergent John Fought arrives for repatriation at 8-wing at 2 o’clock today.
