Stogran said he had discovered that some 400 Veterans Affairs officials had scoured his personal files for evidence that could be used to shut him up. Other vets soon came forward with similar stories.

Ex-cadets experience a day at sea aboard the HMCS Calgary – 5609 David Stocks (RRMC 1963)

On September 10, 2010 a group of ex-cadets from Royal Roads Military College was provided the opportunity to experience a day at sea aboard the HMCS Calgary. Between 1940 and 1995 Royal Roads University served as an officer training establishment under the names of HMCS Royal Roads and Royal Roads Military College.

Taking the tour that day was former Sooke resident 5609 David Stocks (RRMC 1963) and his wife Frances. He came for the 50th anniversary reunion and met up with 19 former classmates. It offered him a chance to reminisce and get his sea legs back. His classmates said the time they spent at Royal Roads was not just about education but leadership and the foundation of a person. It encompassed ethics and discipline leading to “better Canadians. Those men who graduated from RRMC became leaders in their communities across Canada. They became pilots and engineers, bankers and businessmen. The guests aboard the HMCS Calgary were shown the maneuvering capabilities of the ship, a rescue at sea utilizing the Sea King helicopter, and demonstrations by military aircraft. The HMCS Calgary, moored at Esquimalt, weighs 4,770 tonnes, travels 29 plus knots and carries 225 sailors. Source
