MONTY MONTGOMERY
Monty joined the military in July, 1977. He served for 16 years in the Communicator Research trade, serving at CFS Masset, CFS Inuvik, (almost) 4 tours at CFS Alert and finished his military career with the Communications Security Establishment, where he was hired after the crash. Suffering a head injury in the crash, Monty was delirious for most of the time at the crash site and suffered severe frostbite, losing all his fingers and half his toes. Three toes were transfered to his left hand to give him "pinch". Monty spent the rest of his career as a vocal advocate for Disability (and Human) Rights within the Canadian Government. Monty retired in late 2019 and is enjoying life to the fullest.
