  • IN SEARCH of MINERVA's OWL Canada‟S Army and Staff
    IN SEARCH OF MINERVA’S OWL Canada‟s Army and Staff Education (1946-1995) by HOWARD GERARD COOMBS A thesis submitted to the Department of History in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen‟s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada January, 2010 Copyright © Howard Gerard Coombs, 2010 ABSTRACT The intellectual history of the Canadian Army from 1946 to 1995 can be traced through the curriculum utilized by the Canadian Army Staff College and the Canadian Forces College to educate the Canadian Army staff officer in conducting warfare within theatres of war. This body of knowledge was analogous to what today comprises the operational level of war. It is a structured vision of conducting conflict that was reaffirmed and sustained by institutional memory created in the crucible of the Second World War and traces its antecedents to the military operations of the Napoleonic Age. These ideas were preserved almost unchanged throughout the Cold War until the introduction of operational art in the late 1980s, as a result of United States influence. The ability of the Canadian Army to maintain this professional knowledge, as a coherent, unchanging whole throughout a period buffeted by social and political change indicates the separateness of the military profession within Canada. This arose from the absence of consistent and durable political guidance during the immediate post war era. As a result the use of the Canadian military as an instrument of national power became disjointed. By default, the unifying factor in Canadian defence activities was maintaining relevance within alliances, particularly in supporting the Pax Americana.

  • CCMM 20 Gala Cover Press
    Chinese Canadian Military Museum Society The Chinese Canadian participation in the World Wars is largely unknown within and outside the Chinese communities yet their contribution was significant. However, despite their courage and patriotism, there are few official displays dedicated to Chinese Canadian participation in either war. As a result of their sacrifice in World War II, Chinese were finally able to claim the opportunities and rights afforded other Canadians. They were offered citizenship and the right to vote, which in turn, led to membership in professional societies such as law, medicine and engineering previously closed to them. The role of our museum society is to collect, record and preserve artifacts, memorabilia and photographs and tell their wartime stories. Today, we also seek to educate a new generation of Canadians on the role the Chinese played in our country’s history. We not only operate a museum – which is located within Chinese Cultural Centre complex in Vancouver’s Chinatown – we also organize tours and talks, and undertake special projects designed to promote awareness of the experience of Chinese Canadian soldiers. Find out more: [email protected]; on Facebook and on our website at www.ccmms.ca. ANAVET Pacific Unit 280 World War II Chinese Canadian veterans came into their own 68 years ago when 70 of their ranks were granted a charter of the Army, Navy, Air Force Veterans in Canada, Pacific Unit 280. They made history by becoming the first all Chinese Canadian vets Unit in Canada. Chinese Canadians veterans had served in various theatres of conflict – in Europe, Southeast Asia, South Pacific and Australia – and were present as provincial President Sidney Hamilton presented the charter to Unit 280 President the late Frank Ho Lem of Calgary.
