Craig Kingsley is an active member of the Canadian Forces. He served aboard the HMCS Athabaskan in a 2000 action called Operation Megaphone, where crew from the Canadian destroyer boarded the Katie, a freighter returning Canadian military supplies to Canada after the Kosovo mission. Craig was a member of the boarding party, and he helped to secure Canadian Forces members aboard the freighter, along with the supplies. For his part in the operation, he and fellow crew members were able to return to base in Canada on the PM’s plane.
Craig visited Crestwood in February 2017, along with WW2 Navy veteran Gord Casey, whose story can also be found in this project.
