RUSI Regina will be launching an oral history exhibit in April entitled Who Wears The Uniform? Through firsthand, interviews, photographs, and artifacts, men and women speak about service in Afghanistan and Bosnia; fighting forest fires; intercepting drug shipments at sea; caring for the injured as medical professionals; providing guidance through chaplaincy; working alongside military dogs; and other unique roles within the Canadian Armed Forces.

Every Wednesday between now and April we will be uploading sneak peaks of the stories of each of these 10 individuals. Stay tuned and spread the word.

This project is made possible with the support of Veterans Affairs Canada.
