From the Graduating Class of Royal Roads 1952 / RMC 1954 to the RMC Graduating Class of 2025
As Alumni, we were enormously proud of the achievements of our Classmates in the Canadian Armed Forces in Canada and abroad, in Business and Industry, in Academia, in Athletics, in Public Service and in Community Service roles. Our unique Canadian Military Colleges experience included a huge level of respect for the great many Alumni who have contributed so significantly to Canada , the world, and even as astronauts.
Dear Members of RMC Graduating Class 2025 From the Class of 1966
I was born in Scotland one month before the end of the War in Europe. Growing up, I learned from my parents and my older siblings (in words and photos) the terror of the Nazi Blitz, and the bravery of The Few during the Battle of Britain. They told me about hordes of Nazi aircraft flying over our village enroute to bomb the shipbuilding yards in Glasgow – and seeing some of these invaders crashing to earth in flames as close as a mile from our village.
Best Wishes to the Class of 2025 From the Class of 1975
In the 50 years since, we have faced numerous challenges, accomplished many things and experienced much joy in our lives.
Letter to the Graduating Class of 2025 From the Class of 1979

BRAVO ZULU! to the Class of 2025 of Canada’s finest educational institution and military academy from the Class of 1980
Always remember your classmates, the ones you studied with, played sports with, and trained with during the summers, including those with whom you didn’t associate or see eye-to-eye. Remember all the recruits with whom you began this journey, yet who moved on before graduation; they are your classmates too. Keep in contact with your entire group, for you form an exceptional network of professionals who share a unique bond, and you can call on each other in the years to come.
To the Class of 2025 from the Class of 1984
Congratulations on completing such an important milestone in your development as an officer in the Canadian Armed Forces. Although it was many years ago, I can still remember my pride in marching off the parade square for the very last time. One thing I have taken with me from that day is the connection with…

History Project Coin Presentation from the Class of 1980
Canada’s contribution to the War on Terror, our longest War at just over 12 years, was our first NATO Article 5 commitment. The LAV we see before us was a centerpiece of Canada’s efforts in Afghanistan, and the Class of 80 thought it was important to provide a monument to provide a focus on Canada’s contribution.
