Good afternoon,
My name is Lee Berthiaume and I'm writing from Postmedia News (i.e. the National Post, Ottawa Citizen, Montreal Gazette, etc).
Postmedia is currently undertaking a major project looking at the Canadians who served in Afghanistan.
I am looking in particular for former CF members who have served in Afghanistan during the last decade who would be willing to be interviewed for the piece. I am looking for men and women, reg force and militia, of varying ages, ranks, ethnicity and religion, and those who joined up before 9/11 and after, and who served one tour or multiple tours. Looking particularly for those living in the Ottawa, Kingston, Trenton, Petawawa and/or Montreal area.
The types of questions I'd be asking include why you joined the CF and when, how you would compare your experience in Afghanistan to the rest of your time in the Forces, what you thought about your experience and afterward, why you left the Forces and what you are doing now.
Best case would be to sit-down for about half an hour to 45 minutes, part of which would be video recorded for use as a multi-media segment on the Postmedia website (www.canada.com) as well as photographs.
If you are interested, please contact me at lberthiaume@postmedia.com or 613-369-4806.
Thank you very much.
