GUIDELINES FOR SUBMISSION TO CANADA’S RED HACKLE
It is very inspiring to read about our Regiment from the far corners of this country and abroad. The interest and excitement is still there in the stories being told, but there are so many personal accounts of their time with the Regiment that have not been chronicled. As we get older and our memories fade, the task becomes more difficult. Canada’s Red Hackle magazine strongly encourages all of our Regimental members, including our younger members, to put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard and remember some aspect of their Regimental life that our readers would enjoy. Everyone has a story to tell and it is extremely important we tell the stories while still possible. These articles should include photographs of their activities, whether operational or not. Let us also continue to search for those with whom we have lost touch and to reconnect with their regimental roots so we can hear their stories also. We ask that the size of the submissions be limited to 1500 words and that all articles and correspondence to be published be sent electronically as Microsoft Word attachments since we do not have the manpower to have handwritten or typewritten text reproduced. We request that the photographs are not imbedded in the article but attached separately.
