A secret code? Not quite. 38123 is a RCMP regimental number. It is my husband's number. He is now retired, but it will remain his forever. His badge is now encased in resin as he retired five years ago. This number will never be used again. It is his "badge of honour".
The past days have been horrifying. Once again families and colleagues have been shattered, this time in Moncton. The unspeakable has happened- again. I am grateful we no longer live this life. I am distraught that three families have been irrevocably altered. The RCMP members have made the ultimate sacrifice with their lives. Their families now live that sacrifice and must grapple with their lives as they try to live without their husbands, fathers, sons, brothers.
