HMCS Cornwallis, Skeena 6824 Division

Thanks to Greg Trudeau for this photo.

April 10, 2026: I received an email from John Gibbins – "(this) is the graduate photo of my training division. We began training late 1968 and completed training early 1969. "Skeena 6824" rings a bell. I recognize a number of the faces but names escape me (it's been almost 60 years!!) I'm in the 3rd row from the front, 3rd from the right."

The subject of the photo has been a mystery since Greg Trudeau submitted it in January, 2019. At that time he said: "I bought the attached pic of HMCS Cornwallis at an estate sale here in Seattle this afternoon. While researching it I came across your web site and thought you might like seeing the pic."
