Black Watch friends:
Regret to report the passing of Tom McIntyre yesterday in Fredericton.
Tom served in our 1st Battalion (mostly in Pioneer Platoon) in Aldershot, Germany, Gagetown and Cyprus. He re-badged 2RCR in 1970.
Tom was widely recognized within the unit as a skilled carpenter and one of his more memorable projects was the catamaran that he built in Jamaica in 1971 for his CQMS, Doug Riggs.
Note funeral arrangements next week in Oromocto.
