Mark will share the story of his father Leonard\, who enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force during the Second World War\, ultimately serving in the 158 Squadron of the Royal Air Force.

He also served for 19 years as a reserve field military officer in the Canadian Armed Forces. Now an instructor in the Justice Studies program at Saskatchewan Polytechnic\, James works alongside Treaty 4 elders as a traditional helper. He will be speaking about his service as well as that of his father’s\, William Pratt\, who served in the Second World War. James continues to share his traditional knowledge both in and out of the policing world\, serves on several community boards\, and advises the policing community when asked to do so. \nJames is married with 2 sons and a daughter\, 9 grandchildren\, and 2 great-grandchildren with whom he spends lots of time. He enjoys hunting\, fishing\, and sharing his traditional knowledge with young people. \n  \nAll are welcome!
