Rank: Lieutenant-Colonel
Lieutenant-Colonel Pitcher was the lead military planner for the No. 2 Construction Battalion National Apology Event, held in Truro, Nova Scotia, on July 9, 2022. He worked in a position that was undefined in terms of community stakeholder engagement. In the absence of a bespoke event planner, Lieutenant-Colonel Pitcher managed the planning team through the organization and successful execution of the event. Lieutenant-Colonel Pitcher’s community-oriented ethos had a positive impact on the descendants of the No. 2 Construction Battalion and members of the Black community.
