GM>     You're right.. He's trained with the Seals.. Special
GM>     Forces, SAS and many others... I taught him to swim
GM>     when he was 9 months old.. He's been going strong
GM>     ever since.
Has he had the chance to do much recreational diving, or is it
mostly military work?
GM>     In my time, to be diver (Armed Service), one had
GM>     to be qualified as a Royal Live Saving, YMCA or
GM>     Red Cross Water Safety Instructor.
I had forgotten all about the RLS Society of Canada.  I
was a certified instructor with them when I lived in
Vancouver, BC.  (More than a few years ago....)
GM>     The first North American Under Water Council (I
GM>     believe that was the name it was called) was held
GM>     in 1954 at Camp Borden Ontario... I remember that
GM>     well as I was the Water Safety Instructor.....My!
GM>     How time flies!
Sounds as though you've got some pretty good diving stories
of your own to tell!
