    • 10 Pages

    In my position with the Army Materiel Command, I actually was responsible for several other programs that covered many of the Army’s core functions for communications and signal.

    • 1637 Words
    • 7 Pages

    EV-516 woke up right on time, the way she always did, at least, the way she always did since the operation. Her eye scanners flickered bright colors back and forth, sending information to her eyes and into her brain. She stood, dressed, and walked out of the boarding house rhythmically, in the same pattern she did everything.

    navies and air forces, but the great impact that Canadian soldiers had on the war should not be lost. Many people have dismissed Canada as a peaceful, non-militaristic country, but saying that Canada played an insignificant part in the Second World War is simply inaccurate: manpower does not equal effectiveness. The actions taken and victories gained by the Canadian Forces in the Second World War have had large and visible impacts on the final…
