Thanks for the content. I remember spending a bit of time in the Sask Dragoons officer's mess in Moose Jaw.

I have visited this museum and support it yearly and it is a fantastic place to take you kids for a visit and to teach them about Canadian war heroes.

I have a very rare Colt 45 New Service that was the 12th gun issued to Squadron C of the Lord Strathcona Horse Royal Canadian Calvary in WW1. The LSHRC Squadron was the unit where Lt. Flowerdew served. Where would be the best place to offer it foe sale so a Canadian Calvary collector could buy it ? Thanks.

I live in Australia, Army reserve Infantry a very long time ago. Also, a member of the Victorian branch of the Corps of Commissionaires who were sadly disbanded after ANZAC day two weeks ago. I collect grenade cap badges (Grenadier, Fusilier, Artillery) and Canadian cloth shoulder titles. Only found your channel last week, great subject, great presentation and great collection. Keep it up mate! Subbed.

My father was in the Canadian HLI. He was sent in "green" to the beaches of D-Day. That's it. That is the extent that I know of my father's experience. He/we suffered from his PTSD. Could you give me any info on the Highland Light Infantry?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highland_Light_Infantry_of_Canada A good place to start. Google has a lot of information as well.

The brass centurion tank badges remind me of the green felt staghounds on the 19 Alberta Dragons battledress, both were forward facing on the arms above the stripes
@CollectingCanadianCavArm
@CollectingCanadianCavArm 6 месяцев назад
Yes, but the 19th Armoured CAr staghounds are much harder to find and expensive when you do.

I have a couple somewhere but until I can display the whole collection, they remain illusive.

I don’t believe they ever went to Africa. They weee the RECCE regiment for the 2nd Canadian Corps in Europe. I’d be interested in seeing the badge. Cheers

The American helmet makes me think of Oddball from Kelly’s Hero’s myself. Ironically a Canadian playing an American.
