  This page started off as a listing for Cornwallis CFRS Barracks only.  
 
  But when looking at maps & old pictures of Cornwallis, I thought of the places that I would've visited:
  • Barber Shop
  • Drill Hall
  • Firing Range
  • Gymnasium & Pool
  • Hospital (MIR) & Dental Clinic
  • Mess Hall
 
  So I started to add those places to the list below.

And then I thought of the people posted to the base that might stumble upon this page, and the
places where they worked that they might be interested in, so I then added those places too.
