In the ‘Where are they now’ section, you indicate 20043 Dr. Trevor Cadieu is working on his emergency medicine residency. While I wish I had the intelligence of my brother, I unfortunately cannot make that claim. Please note 20043 Trevor Cadieu is still proudly serving as an Armoured Officer with Lord Strathcona’s Horse (Royal Canadians). His twin brother, 20512 Travis (R, graduated from RMC in 1996 and is currently an attending physician at the Vancouver General Hospital. All the best to the great RMC team.
