This is long overdue. Wayne and I were part of the RCMP’s first United Nations contingent abroad, to South West Africa, which became the country of Namibia under our stewardship. He was a stalwart companion and a pillar of strength in very, very uncertain times. He would be proud to learn that I still carry the South African Rand coin we swore to protect as a keepsake of our momentous journey in Africa. God Bless you, Wayne. - Posted by: James Knopp (Friend and fellow Peacekeeper) on: May 22, 2020
