Public Lecture with LCdr Angus Topshee
March 13, 2008
2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Okanagan Military Museum 1424 Ellis Street
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lieutenant Commander Angus Topshee, Executive Officer of the HMCS 
TORONTO, will give a public lecture at the Okanagan Military Museum.

HMCS TORONTO returned in December from a highly successful five month 
maritime security deployment with NATO's Standing Maritime Group One.

This action packed voyage included the first ever circumnavigation of
Africa by a NATO Task Group and featured interactions with warships
from South Africa, Ghana, and Nigeria during the course of TORONTO's 
operations in the pirate-plagued African littorals.

Participants will not only be entertained by LCdr Topshee's
multi-media presentation featuring first-hand accounts of a historic
trip, but will also come away with a greater understanding of the value 
of the Navy in protecting and promoting Canada's interests at home and 
abroad.

For more information please contact the
Okanagan Military Museum at (250) 763-9292.
Admission by donation.
