Vintage Royal Canadian Air Force Bagotville Insignia

(992HWS-RCBI)(UPS)(900BIN)

LIMITED ITEM. SURPLUS - PREVIOUSLY OWNED. Once they are gone, we may not get any more. Sold As Is - NON-REFUNDABLE.

This insignia was part of items sold to us from Sergeant SAUVE, Course 168 "B" estate items from the WWI period through to 1959.  Not sure the date of this pin - can't find anything quite like it in the internet but did find information on Bagotville:

The Bagotville Station was built in July 1942 to provide a training base for pilots and protect the Alcan and hydro-electric facilities in the area during World War II, hence its motto "Defend the Saguenay".

Closed at the end of the war, the station was re-opened in 1951 as a training base for the squadrons serving with the Canadian Division in Europe and to support the air defence operations of the newly formed Canadian and American forces that would become NORAD in 1958.

Following implementation of the Wing concept in the Air Force, 3 Wing, which in succession served Canada at Zweibrücken from 1952 to 1968 and at Lahr from 1988 to 1992, was reconstituted at Bagotville on 1 April 1993.

1942: The first operational training Unit, initially named Bagotville Station, was built in 1942 in order to provide a training base for pilots of the RCAF during World War II. On top of pilot training, Bagotville Station had the mission to protect the Alcan and hydroelectric facilities in the area, hence its motto "Defend the Saguenay". When the war ended, Bagotville Station was officially closed and reopened on 1 July 1951 for the squadrons serving with the Canadian Division in Europe. Then, 413 and 414 Squadron were deployed in Europe on 7 March 1953. Subsequently, Bagotville was quiet up to 1954, to then became a permanent base for the CF-100 Canuck "all-weather" fighter of 432 and 440 Squadrons.

1957: At that time, Bagotville was already an important link in the chain for the North American Air Defence, named NORAD in 1958. In 1957, 440 Squadron was posted to Grostenquin in France and replaced by 413 Squadron, which had been repatriated to Canada with its CF-100s. In 1961, both squadrons assigned to Bagotville were disbanded and the base was reassigned to its first primary mission, which was operational training, in addition to playing an air defence role with the creation of No.3 All-Weather Fighter Operational Training Unit.

    Beautiful quality made tv stand.
    Color: Walnut
    Beautiful TV stand. Easy to assemble. I took a chance on this stand matching the new end tables I got from a different store and manufacturer. They match perfectly. I couldn't be happier with the color of the wood, the quality construction and minimalist clean look. It looks great in my living room.

    Modern and sleek
    Item Package Quantity: 1
    I haven't assembled this yet but I'm really looking forward to using it as a nightstand - the style looks really sleek and modern and it seems like it'll fit perfectly in a small space. It's worth noting that it's made of particle board rather than solid wood, which is pretty standard at this price point, so just go in with that expectation. The design looks really clean and the storage shelf underneath is a practical bonus. Hoping it holds up well over time but based on first impressions and the overall look, I think it's going to be a really nice and affordable addition to the bedroom!

    Decent looking but not very sturdy
    Item Package Quantity: 1, Item Package Quantity: 1
    This table looks pretty nice once it is fully assembled and I appreciated that all the parts were clearly labeled. There were no missing parts, and in fact there were some extras. That made the instructions easier to follow and helped speed things up. From unpacking everything to finishing assembly it took me around 30 minutes. There are a few quality issues though. The black finish feels very thin and started chipping around the screws while I was tightening them down. It does not seem like it will hold up very well over time if it already shows wear during assembly. The biggest issue is the stability. Even after tightening everything, the table still feels a little shaky. The set screws near the bottom base pieces do not stay tight for very long and kept loosening while I was putting it together. I assembled it by myself and the legs kept shifting and falling over because those connections would not stay secure. This is definitely easier if you have another person helping. The packaging also could have been better. The box had a lot of particle board dust and debris inside, so unpacking everything was a bit messy. The item description says it can hold up to 66 pounds, but after putting it together I personally would not trust it with anywhere near that much weight. I originally planned to use it for a small aquarium that weighs around 20 pounds, and even that made me uncomfortable once I saw how flimsy the table felt assembled. I think it is better suited for lightweight items and I'd only store something like a couple of books or a lightweight lamp or a couple of picture frames. Overall it is not terrible and it does look reasonably attractive, but the build quality does not really match the current fifty dollar price in my opinion. It should be priced lower. It works for light decorative use, but I would not expect anything especially sturdy or long lasting.
