Visitors to Fort York for Doors Open on 28 May lucked out in being able to attend Artillery Day and the 48th Highlanders 125th anniversary parade and mini-tattoo. Both took place that same day. Seen there were (left to right) Kevin Hebib, program development officer at the fort; BGen (Ret) Ernie Beno, HCol of the Toronto Gunners; and, in period uniform, Bdr. J. T. Douglas of E Battery, 2nd Regiment Royal Canadian Horse Artillery based in Petawawa, Ontario. The gun is an original 9-pounder, introduced into service with the British Army about 1871.
