RICHARD ALLEN SCOTT - Through the Years

RICHARD ALLEN SCOTT THROUGH THE YEARS 1989 On January 26 th, I appeared before the Officer Candidate Board, having repeated the exam process but gaining an exemption from writing another research paper. So almost 2 years to the day, I was successful on this outing, and although not scoring highly on the interview, was found eligible for placement on the list for promotion to Inspector. Yippee! The rules of the game had changed, and now they took into account the past 10 years of performance scores which helped my overall score considerably. Now all there was to do was wait until an Inspector position came available and for which I was deemed qualified. Quite a crap shoot actually. In June, Sharon and I went for a weekend visit to Prince Edward Island, with neighbours and good friends, the Drewerys…from whom I had purchased my Pontiac Sunbird. They owned a home on the Island, so off we went, and 12 hours later were there! This summer was the last time we would see Aunt Stella, who visited Mum in Sarnia, and us in Winchester. Visit from Aunt Stella – Aug, 1989 Chris and Robyne – 12 years, Tim 14 years, Sharon 36 and me 41 - Ottawa June 2017 165
RICHARD ALLEN SCOTT THROUGH THE YEARS In June, Tim graduated into High School, and the twins into Junior High. Throughout their school years to date, all three of them attained honours, ribbons, awards, newspaper coverage, you name it, for their academic and athletic achievements. Far too many to be mentioned in this document. Grade 8 graduation - June, 1989 First day of school - Sep, 1989 On September 21 st with 22½ years of service, I was commissioned as an Inspector. My dream had finally come true. Greatest day in my career for a long time. Wish Dad had been around to see it. Of course, a transfer was involved. This time to “D” Division Headquarters (Manitoba) as the Officer in Charge, Informatics Branch. The Commanding Officer wanted me there almost immediately. In October, I was assessed for French Language Training… which I had been requesting for the past 15 years and been ignored. Talk about the left hand not knowing what the right hand was doing. The timing was absolutely stupid. We put our house on the market immediately for $134,900. I was in regular contact with the CO’s secretary in Winnipeg to keep him updated on the house-selling situation. He was not impressed and strongly suggested that I precede the family. In preparation for that I shipped one of our vehicles and a trunk full of my clothing and uniforms. Finally, just before I was due to leave, the house sold…on Dec 22 nd – and for less than $124,900. I’m sure the kids were upset to leave – especially half way through a school year, and leaving their friends of many years. June 2017 166
