Museums and Archives The Canadian Army Comes To Aldershot download 23kb pdf Had you walked into Aldershot sixty years ago you would have been pressed to find a British soldier anywhere in sight. For since Christmas 1939 the Canadian Army Overseas had made Aldershot their main base in the UK. The first Canadian soldiers came to Aldershot for the Diamond Jubilee celebrations marking the sixtieth year of Queen Victoria's reign in 1897. The contingent which assembled at the Citadel, Quebec, consisted of 300 men, drawn from various militia regiments, commanded by Colonel Aylmer, the Adjutant General of Militia. The Infantry detachment included Major Henry Pellatt, of the Queens Own Rifles of Canada, who commanded a guard of honour at the Thanksgiving Service at St Paul's Cathedral. Jubilee week itself saw twenty five thousand men of the British and Empire armies form up on Laffan's Plain for a celebratory parade and march past, reviewed by Queen Victoria. Besides the Canadians the Colonial Contingent consisted of detachments from India, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. It was the year 1910 that has gone down in Canadian military history for an amazing event that probably will ever remain unique - the visit of the Queens Own Rifles of Canada to Aldershot to take part in the autumn manoeuvres. The Regiment was raised in April 1860 by combining six existing militia companies. In 1862 it expanded to ten companies and was then named Second Battalion, Queens Own Rifles of Toronto.

Book Search Book Search The Soldiers' General Bert Hoffmeister at War Douglas E Delaney Self-doubt so plagued him that he suffered a nervous breakdown even before fighting his first combat action. But, by the end of the Second World War, Bert Hoffmeister had exorcised his anxieties, risen from Captain to Major-General, and won more awards than any Canadian officer in the war. Fighting from the invasion of Sicily in July 1943 to the final victory in Europe in May 1945, this native Vancouverite earned a reputation as a fearless commander on the battlefield - one who led from the front, one well loved by those he led. How did he do it? The Soldiers' General explains, in eloquent and accessible prose, how Hoffmeister conducted his business as a military commander. With an astute analytical eye, Delaney carefully dissects Hoffmeister's numerous battles to reveal how he managed and how he led, how he directed and how he inspired. An exemplary leader, Hoffmeister stood out among his contemporaries, not so much for his technical ability to move the chess pieces well; there were plenty who could do that. Rather, Bert Hoffmeister was exceptional for his ability to get the chess pieces to move themselves. The most comprehensive and easy-to-understand study of any Canadian military commander to date, The Soldiers' General will appeal as much to the student of military history as it will to anyone in search of a good story.

Introduction General Section War of 1812 Northwest Campaign ... Comments First World War Political Direction of the War Rt. Hon. Sir Robert Laird Borden, Prime Minister of Canada from 1911 to 1920 Canada's war effort was directed by Prime Minister Sir Robert Borden's Conservative administration, which, with the addition of dissident Liberals, became the Union government in the autumn of 1917. Borden's Memoirs provide much useful source material, and Craig Brown has given us an excellent biography. His article, "Sir Robert Borden, the Great War and Anglo-Canadian relations" concentrates on the major theme of Canadian cooperation with Britain in the war effort, while Cuff and Granatstein emphasize the American relationship, important in wartime for the first time. In The decline of politics, John English provides a thorough examination of the war within the broader context of the national political process. Canadians, including both historians and journalists, have long been fascinated with Sir Sam Hughes, who was until 1916 Borden's dynamic, but highly eccentric, Minister of Militia and Defence. Few of Hughes's personal papers survive, but Ronald Haycock has nevertheless written the only modern, critical biography of Hughes. Morton's A peculiar kind of politics is, in fact, a peculiar, but scholarly and very readable, account of a unique experiment the creation of the Ministry of Overseas Military Forces of Canada, a Canadian government department in Britain to administer Canada's overseas war effort and bring order to the chaos created by Hughes during the 1914-1916 period.

The image of the red-coated Mountie in broad-brimmed Stetson hat is instinctively associated with Canada around the world. But there is more to the Mounties than just a romantic image. The stage was set in 1873 for a role that would intimately connect the Mounted Police and its members with the development of Canada as a great nation. From the beginning of its long history, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) have served Canada and its people by establishing law and order in the frontier reaches of this vast nation. As the country grew in population and diversity, and its communities became more established, the Mounted Police adapted, ensuring the peace and security for its citizens.
