We were proud to have Indigenous members represent the Canadian Army at the 1st Annual Alumni & Student Pow Wow at St. Clair College in Windsor on June 3-5, 2022.

Cpl DJ White (left) is a traditional dancer from Walpole Island First Nation, and a current serving member the Essex and Kent Scottish Regiment. Sgt Ray Starks (centre) is a member of the M’Chigeeng First Nation on Manitoulin Island, and also an Essex Scot who is currently under another command.

The two served as flag bearers for the ceremonies, and are seen here with Mr Wallace Williams of Walpole Island First Nation.

Cpl Smith performed traditional dances throughout the event.

BZ troops!

During the month of June, we commemorate National Indigenous History Month. Indigenous Peoples have made invaluable contributions to the Canadian Armed Forces and, over the next few weeks, we’ll be amplifying some of their stories from past and present.
