Presenting Brigadier Jim Creighton's dirk

Presenting he most recent donation to the Regimental Museum & Archives: this dirk belonged to Brigadier Jim Creighton, CO from 1943-44. Jim was best man at Bert Hoffmeister's wedding, and he ended up passing this dirk on to Col David Fairweather when he became CO. When Regimental Secretary Rod Hoffmeister was appointed HLCol, Col Fairweather passed it on to him. Now in the museum, it has been cleaned, catalogued, and photographed, and is one of a handful of dirks we have in the collection, waiting to be issued to an incoming HCol or CO.
