The Royal Military Colleges of Canada Alumni Association is proud to celebrate Colonel Angie Thomas (RMC Class of 2003) on her appointment as Commander of 14 Wing Greenwood, one of the Royal Canadian Air Force’s most important operational wings and a community she has called home throughout much of her career.
