Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: A new recruit?: No; the Canadian Armed Forces aren't recruiting them younger these days. The H.M.C.S. Annapolis is visiting Toronto; and Stephen Nicolson; 5; went aboard yesterday for a free lesson from Capt. Jim Armour in putting on a pilot's helmet. That's a Sea King helicopter in the background; the same type flown by Prince Andrew during Falkland War.
