An Acrow Panel Bridge built over the Bull River Canyon (some 40 miles east of Cranbrook, B.C.) by 44 Field Engineer Squadron – with help from 8 Field Engineer Regiment, 6 Field Engineer Squadron, 33 Field Engineer Squadron and 1 Combat Engineer Regiment – was named in honour of Sapper Verd Casselman, RE in April 1991. Verd Casselman was a Second World War sapper who went through the minefields at El Alamein. A well-liked local citizen, Sapper Casselman passed away in 1992 and 44 Field Engineer Squadron named the bridge in his honour.
