Do you remember Kevin Vickers?


Recommended Posts

He was the Sgt at Arms that shot the terrorist, that killed the guard, at the tomb of the unknown soldier and then began shooting his way into the Canadian Parliament. He has just been appointed as the Canadian Ambassador to Ireland. the article said that he has a strong Irish/Canadian connection.

Nice reward for eliminating a terrorist scumbag. (and the pay is not bad either, $150,000 plus all the perks that go with the job)

 

Well deserved Kevin.

Congrats to him.

A tough professional in an ambassador's position. Never happen here. ;)

IIRC he went to his desk to get his pistol

Yes. That's what the reports said at the time. And I would expect that. The Sgt at Arms position is more ceremonial than actual security and they did have armed officers in the building. I suspect they have more now.
