Thanks for your comments! Once a new airman arrived at a manning depot, he was required to get a haircut. At Number 2 Manning Depot in Brandon, where people wishing to enlist in the RCAF would come to sign up, the barber was a man by the name of Jack Taylor. In the photograph above the display case, he is the barber who is on the right observing his employees at work. Jack Taylor asked everyone whose hair he cut to sign a notebook. By the end of the war, the books contained approximately 22,000 signatures. Often, visitors can find their signatures or the signature of someone they know in the barber’s books. These have been digitized, which makes finding signatures much easier; if you would like a member of staff, or a volunteer, to search the digital version of the books for a signature, please do not hesitate to ask.
