| MR.
PARSONS: |
I rise today to recognize and congratulate twenty-six
year old, Trooper Scott Simms, of Channel-Port aux
Basques on his service to our country and his safe
return from Afghanistan.
Trooper Simms is a member of the Royal Canadian
Dragoons with the Canadian Armed Forces and he recently
returned from a successful tour of duty in Afghanistan.
Scott was stationed at the Forward Operating Base at
Frontenac, in the Argandab District where he was the
driver of a Coyote and other assigned duties. Scott’s
tour of duty in Afghanistan was from September 20, 2008
to May 3, 2009. He celebrated his twenty-sixth birthday
while in Kandahar.
Trooper Simms is the son of Wayne and Gail Simms of
Channel-Port aux Basques. Scott is currently stationed
in Petawawa, Ontario.
Mr. Speaker, I ask all members of this House to join
with me in extending thanks to Trooper Scott Simms on
his service to our country. All the best to Scott and
his family.
Thank you. |
