CPO 2 Stevens joined the Infantry Reserves through the Aboriginal Entry Program and jumped at the chance to join Regular Force as a Sonar Operator in the Navy. While in Thunder Bay, onboard HMCS Halifax, a local chief came to the ship and presented an eagle feather to the crew’s Indigenous members. That day started him on a path to discover his culture, native language and become the Indigenous Advisor to the Chaplain General.
