50 Years of Women at HMCS Quadra


Listen Later

On this episode, I chat with four women who all joined the Cadet Organization in the late 1970’s or early 1980’s.  Female Sea Cadets started in 1975 at HMCS Quadra, a world that for many years was males only.  

You’ll hear from 4 guests:

Karen Coles,  (née Rutherford)

RCSCC Falkland, Ottawa ON

Practical Leadership 1980 – Top Cadet

Yvette Myers

RCSCC Alberni, Port Alberni BC

Boatswain 1979

Chantal Webb,  (née Lohr)

RCSCC Crusader, Winnipeg MB

Boatswain 1982 – Top Cadet

Jennifer Tennier,  (née Roberts)

RCSCC Rainbow, Victoria BC

Boatswain 1982

I hope you enjoy the discussion with these trailblazing women.  They each share some memories from being involved in Sea Cadets and going to the Q!
