There are three representatives here in Nain from the Canadian Military based out of Gander to recruit Canadian Rangers and Junior Canadian Rangers.
Rob Patterson oversees the programming for the Junior Canadian Rangers.
Patterson says that the purpose of their visit to Nain is to generate some interest for ages 12 to 18 years to become JCR’s.
He adds that Rex Holwell Junior is a Corporal for the JCR’s and Steven Moore is the Junior Canadian Ranger Master Corporal.
Patterson also adds that they will be traveling to the other Nunatsiavut communities.
We will be speaking with Patterson later in the AtjiKangitut program to find out more.
