48th Highlanders Regimental Association

The Association exists to preserve the bonds of comradeship among Highlanders; to foster, maintain and promote the traditions and well-being of the 48th Highlanders of Canada; and to generate pride and ésprit de corps among the Regimental Family.

The objectives of the Association are to support the active Regiment, commemorate and honour the service of past generations of Highlanders, and to foster and strengthen comradeship among Highlanders both retired and serving. 

Who is eligible to join?

All former and serving members of the 48th Highlanders, the affiliated Cadet Corps, and members of their families are welcome. Others who support the Regiment and the Association’s objectives are welcome to apply.

What is the cost to join?

There are no dues. However, we invite you to donate to the Trusts to support the various objectives of the Association. Click HERE to donate.

How do I join?

You may already be a member of the Association. However, we want to ensure that you are kept up to date on ALL the news from the Active Unit and your friends in the Association. Therefore we ask that you register by clicking the “Join” button below..  When you register, you will be automatically added to our Falcon e-mail list.

Since I am already a member, why do I have to register?

We will eventually discontinue the use of all existing mailing lists. So, if you don’t register on this website, you won’t be receiving the Falcon newsletters or Bulletins.

Why should I join?

The Association is an alumni group which will provide members with reliable and timely communications about upcoming events and social media platforms that will allow you to connect to those with whom you served and/or share like interests. You may already be a member of the new Association. However, it is important that you register your e-mail address by clicking the “Join the Association” button below.

How do the OCA, IODE, and other regimentally based associations and groups relate?

The Old Comrades Association (OCA), Continuing Sergeants Association (CSA), Pipes and Drums Association (P&DA) have begun the process of standing down  Members of these associations are automatically members of the Association. (Even though you are officially a member, it is important for you to register on this web site to continue receiving your copy of the Falcon newsletter.)   While the organization and operation of IODE 48th Highlanders Chapter is not affected, it’s members are eligible in their own right for membership in the Regimental Association.

The Great Ruck March Challenge: 05 0000 Apr 21 - 11 2359 Apr 21

Highlanders,

Last week we challenged the Lincoln and Welland Regiment to see which unit could cover the most ground in 7 days.

Although we put up an unbelievable fight, we were defeated.

As a Regiment, we covered an aggressive combined total of 2831.63 kms. Unfortunately, it was not enough to beat the Lincoln & Welland Regiment, who rucked an amazing 3014.64 kms!

The following should be considered, however:

We had 84 participants, while the Lincoln & Welland Regiment had 101 participants.

Many of us had already rucked hundreds of kilometres since November. We lost the battle, but not the war.

The display of esprit de corps, perseverance and dedication we each embodied speaks volumes about the commitment many of us have to the 48th Highlanders - may we remain faithful forever.

Here are the top 10 for last week:

1. MCpl Boyden - 109.70 kms
2. Capt Van der Toorn - 108.50 kms
3. LCol Alkema - 107.30 kms
4. MCpl Deurloo- 102.20 kms
5. MCpl Wang - 100.95 kms
6. Lt Fernandes - 100.20 kms
7. Cpl Melo - 74.10 kms
8. Pte Jackson - 69.61 kms
9. Cpl Mayer - 66.70 kms
10. Cpl Aguilar Viera - 61.60 kms

"I enjoyed this challenge because it built team and unit cohesion. Every member who participated was working toward a common goal and took pride in their fitness and their Regiment.

I want to thank Lt Fernandes for creating this awesome challenge, it inspired many members both serving and retired to remain fighting fit. This challenge helped motivate the regimental family to keep active and promoted physical and mental health during a time when people need it most.

Congratulations to the Lincoln and Welland regiment for winning the competition and I look forward to competing and working with you in the future."

Hey Troops,
 
Amazing effort so far this week!  From the data that was collected, we are well ahead of the Lincoln and Welland Regiment in terms of total kilometers rucked.  From the beginning of the week until 07 1200 Apr 21, we clocked 1,006 kms collectively, the Lincoln and Welland Regiment were at 685 kms.  At noon today, we hit 1,380 kms!   I briefed the CO, and here are his comments:
 
Highlanders -
Excellent work so far!  Well done.  This is the DILEAS Spirit that we keep talking about.  However, we’re not done yet; the Lincoln and Welland are a competitive Unit and won't let us win without a fight.   I encourage you to keep on rucking.  We are better than halfway through, but there are still three days left.  Lace up the boots, strap on your ruck, and let’s go. 
DILEAS
CO
 
Let's keep the tempo high and maintain the initiative in order to force them to match our battle rhythm. With a bit more effort on your part, we will win this competition.  Keep those rucks on, and boots laced up, we're nearly there!Lt Brian K. J. Fernandes

Repost • @32cbg_32gbcPte/ Sdt KatzI grew up in housing projects my whole life so I always had the stereotype where it would be assumed I wouldn’t go anywhere but down wrong paths. This inspired me to always try to make myself the best person I can possibly be. I always wanted to be someone where I can prove that yes, I lived in bad neighborhoods but I was still able to make something of myself.
My inspiration to join the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) was, that on my dad’s side, there’s multiple generations that are former/current military – but all in the US. The experiences I’ve had in my little over a year in the CAF were beyond amazing. I grew brotherhoods with my course mates on Basic Training.
My Course Officer and Course Warrant have both helped me when I didn’t believe in myself and showed me that my limits are just imaginary boundaries I set for myself. I’m Private Recruit Katz with the 48th Highlanders and I’m beyond proud to wear this uniform!🌟J’ai grandi dans des logements abordables toute ma vie et on a toujours présumé que je ne ferais rien de ma vie. Cela m’a poussé à toujours essayer de faire de moi la meilleure personne possible. J’ai toujours voulu pouvoir prouver aux autres que bien qui j’ai grandi dans des quartiers défavorisés, j’ai réussi à faire quelque chose de ma vie.
J’ai voulu m’enrôler dans les Forces armées canadiennes (FAC), parce que du côté de mon père, ma famille compte plusieurs générations de militaires actifs ou d’anciens militaires, bien que tous aux États-Unis. Ce que j’ai vécu dans les FAC en un peu plus d’un an a été plus qu’extraordinaire. J’ai tissé des liens de confrérie avec mes camarades de cours pendant l’instruction élémentaire.
Mon officier de cours et mon adjudant de cours m’ont tous deux aidé lorsque je ne croyais pas en moi et m’ont montré que mes limites ne sont que des frontières imaginaires que je me fixe. Je suis le soldat (recrue) Katz du 48th Highlanders, et je suis extrêmement fier de porter cet uniforme!#StrongerTogether #InThisTogether #FortsEnsemble #TousEnsemble #48thhighlanders

My inspiration to join the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) was, that on my dad’s side, there’s multiple generations that are former/current military – but all in the US. The experiences I’ve had in my little over a year in the CAF were beyond amazing. I grew brotherhoods with my course mates on Basic Training.

My Course Officer and Course Warrant have both helped me when I didn’t believe in myself and showed me that my limits are just imaginary boundaries I set for myself. I’m Private Recruit Katz with the 48th Highlanders and I’m beyond proud to wear this uniform!

🌟

J’ai grandi dans des logements abordables toute ma vie et on a toujours présumé que je ne ferais rien de ma vie. Cela m’a poussé à toujours essayer de faire de moi la meilleure personne possible. J’ai toujours voulu pouvoir prouver aux autres que bien qui j’ai grandi dans des quartiers défavorisés, j’ai réussi à faire quelque chose de ma vie.

J’ai voulu m’enrôler dans les Forces armées canadiennes (FAC), parce que du côté de mon père, ma famille compte plusieurs générations de militaires actifs ou d’anciens militaires, bien que tous aux États-Unis. Ce que j’ai vécu dans les FAC en un peu plus d’un an a été plus qu’extraordinaire. J’ai tissé des liens de confrérie avec mes camarades de cours pendant l’instruction élémentaire.

Mon officier de cours et mon adjudant de cours m’ont tous deux aidé lorsque je ne croyais pas en moi et m’ont montré que mes limites ne sont que des frontières imaginaires que je me fixe. Je suis le soldat (recrue) Katz du 48th Highlanders, et je suis extrêmement fier de porter cet uniforme!
