Thank you kindly for updating Nicholas Chmara's data sheet so quickly. I'm also sending a picture of him, I think it was taken in 1938 or 1939 in Regina. Somewhere deep in the family albums I know I have a picture of his RCMP grave headstone, sooner or later I'll find it and send it to you.
As for myself, when I graduated from high school in the mid 60's, I wanted to be a member almost more than life itself. Unfortunately, there was still a minimum height requirement in those days, which I missed by a quarter of an inch. Although disappointed, I've spent my life from then to the present supporting and learning about the Force. I think I have most of the books ever written about the RCMP, and I'm always still looking for more.
Warmest regards,
Nephew to Cpl. Chmara,
Dan
