Please help us honour the men and women of the British Columbia Dragoons, who have served Canada both on homeland and abroad, by transporting this coin around the world. My brother has been a member of this regiment for many years.
This coin is a commemorative coin of the BC Dragoons which is part of the army reserve force in Canada. The motto of the Dragoons is "Quansem ilep" which is Salish (Native American people) for "Always first".

They stand as follows:
9 CAR (BCD) - 9th Canadian Armoured Regiment
9th RR (BCD) - 9th Reconnaissance Regiment (BCD)
