Belesarius Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Welp, I might not have voted for his party, but Trudeau made an interesting pick for his defense minister. A Lt. Col. in the Canadian Army (Still serving, he's supposed to be separated this week). He offered to resign to run for Parliament, but the Army wanted to keep him because he's apparently really good at his job. Harajit Singh Sajjan is an interesting guy from what I've read about him so far. First Sikh Canadian to Command a regiment. Combat experience in Bosnia, and 3 tours in Kandahar Province in Afghanistan. Known for having skill in dealing with inter-tribal relations in dealing with the Afghan people. I'll be writing this guy an extensive email in the near future. http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/harjit-singh-sajjan-new-defence-minister-a-canadian-military-veteran-who-knows-reality-of-war SuperComrade and Jeeps_Guns_Tanks 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
