In 47 days they were to do just that, shattering the myth of invincibility that had begun to surround the "Great Fortress".

So [End Page 362] A Military History of Canada , which appeared in 1986, are already obsolete. In 1999 Marc Milner published his long-awaited synthesis of the new writings in Canadian naval history. Milner wove most of the recent scholarship on naval history into an important new history, which demonstrated what could be accomplished using recent scholarship. Now Jack Granatstein, one of Canada's most influential military historians, has done the same for the Canadian army. Granatstein has made excellent use of the works of historians like Carman Miller, Bill Rawlings, Terry Copp, Stephen Harris, Bill McAndrew, and John English, to name but a few. He has added his own indefatigable and indomitable voice, which challenges...

Extractions: By the time the armistice of 27 July 1953 ended the fighting in Korea, most Canadians had a fading memory of that three-year-old conflict. But Canada's "Forgotten War," as it became known, deserved no such a fate. Now only with the appearance of this book fifty years after the closing event, is the complete story being told. And how interesting it is. [End Page 648] examines tactics, operations, training, recruiting and leadership.

Extractions: Die Suid-Afrikaanse Krygshistoriese Vereniging Military History Journal - Vol 6 No 1 Canadian Nurses in the South African Military Nursing Service: Some Reminiscences Forty Years Later by Charlotte S.M. Girard Late in 1941 and early in 1942 some Canadian nurses found themselves serving the armed forces in areas far removed from any foreseeable battle site. A group, eventually to number some three hundred nurses, was to serve neither with the Canadian forces nor with the British, but with those of Canada's sister dominion, South Africa. Many warm memories have remained, many strong ties are still unbroken by time and the links between South Africa and Canada have been maintained both by contacts between Canadian nurses who married and remained in Africa and their Canadian friends who have visited them. The unusually close esprit de corps is reflected in a newsletter which was published up to August 1972: The Ontario Springbok News Letter of Canadian Nursing Sisters serving in South Africa, 1939-1945. (1) In addition, many of these nurses continue to meet at least once a year and thus maintain the old camaraderie of the war years.

Extractions: Click on the envelope to comment on our site or suggest a change to the site. With the collapse of the WARSAW PACT in 1989 the world situation changed. The threat of world wide nuclear war was suddenly reduced as the USSR fragmented and its international influence was severely reduced. Unfortunately, losing the super power "moderating" influences let many client states loose. Wars, civil disturbances and governmental collapses have increased dramatically and PEACEKEEPING AND PEACE MAKING have become the major global business. Canadian forces are now even more heavily committed in the service of peace than ever before. The list that follows, while not comprehensive, outlines some of the broad areas where Canadian troops have been employed in peacekeeping/stability operations over the past 100 years; over 30 of these missions have been under a United Nations mandate. Responding to the 25 June 1950 invasion of South Korea, Canada sent transport aircraft, three destroyers and an infantry brigade group to help restore peace.
