En 1976, il s\u2019est enr\u00f4l\u00e9 dans la Force r\u00e9guli\u00e8re \u00e0 titre de conducteur de v\u00e9hicules motoris\u00e9s et a \u00e9t\u00e9 affect\u00e9 au Centre d\u2019essais du g\u00e9nie terrestre (LETE) \u00e0 Orl\u00e9ans, en Ontario.

En 1987, le LETE a rendu hommage \u00e0 son service en baptisant son installation nouvellement achev\u00e9e \u00ab \u00c9difice du caporal Kevin John Rodgers \u00bb. Lorsque cette d\u00e9dicace a \u00e9t\u00e9 perdue \u00e0 la suite de la fermeture du LETE, notre famille a collabor\u00e9 avec la GRC pour la r\u00e9tablir.
