Why Mounties Dress The Way They Do

Shepppardsays...

Ahh, love that uniform.

I actually liked learning about the mounties in highschool, people like Sam Steele.

My grandfather WAS a mountie, he was actually the bugel boy that woke everyone up in the morning. True to form however, he'd wake up, stick his head out the window, blow the Reveille, shut the window, and went back to bed.

I miss him.

When I was wrapping up in High School, I trained for four months to physically hit the peaks necessary in order to apply to be a member of the RCMP. I wasn't going to let my diabetes keep me from it at all, and it was some hard, hard work.

Then the hammer came down when I went to apply and I was told that due to the cataract surgery I had when I was 10 years old I couldn't be a Mountie. It was a blow at the time, and to this day I still wish now and then that I could've become a Mountie.
