John’s graduation, Bachelor of Arts, 1940. On September 2, 1940, at the age of 22, John joined the Canadian Army with the rank of Lieutenant and was later assigned to the Algonquin Regiment. He was found to be a healthy young man, 5 feet and 7,5 inches tall, weighing 161 pounds and with grey eyes and brown hair. On his Occupational History Form, John indicated that he had 6 years of mixed farming experience in Ontario and that he wished to engage in farming after the war. John in Uniform.

Following their military wedding they went on a honeymoon trip by plane, which took them to Ottawa, Montreal and the Laurentians. Upon their return, the married couple resided at 28 Fraser Street (Angus Block), North Bay, Ontario. Clipping from newspaper ‘The Nugget’. From collection Jewell family. In the morning of June 10, 1943 John embarked on the ‘Empress of Scotland’ in Halifax harbor with the entire Algonquin Regiment, forming part of a total complement of 4500 men. The next morning the ship set sail for the United Kingdom, where the men disembarked on June 19, 1943. John (middle) with men unknown to author. Photos from collection Jewell family.. 4 On July 20, 1944, about six weeks after the initial Allied landings in Normandy, John embarked on a ship to France. The Algonquin Regiment was divided over three separate ships, being all mixed up with tank units, engineers, etc. After sailing to Portsmouth to form up with a larger convoy for the crossing, the men disembarked in Normandy in the morning of July 25, 1944 near Courseulles, where an emergency harbor had been made by sinking a sizeable number of smaller vessels. The book Warpath: The Story of the Algonquin Regiment, 1939-1945 (Warpath) describes how the Algonquin Regiment made its way from Normandy, through Belgium and the Netherlands to Germany. After receiving it’s ‘baptism of fire’ at the town of Hubert Folie, south of Caen, the many battles in which this Regiment was engaged included the breakthrough at Falaise, the crossings of the Seine and the Leopold Canal, as well as the battle for the North shore of the Scheldt area. These battles took a heavy toll of the Regiment and many of its men lost their life or were severely injured. In December 1944, Major C.F. (Charlie) Swan of the Algonquin Regiment described in an interview with the newspaper ‘Daily Nugget’ how the Regiment had proven to be a magnificent fighting unit during these battles. During the interview, he mentioned ‘Johnny’ Jewell as a ‘grand fellow’. By that time, John had been promoted to the rank of Captain in the autumn of 1944. Clipping from newspaper ‘Daily Nugget’, December 1944. From collection Swan family. 5 John corresponded regularly with his family back in Canada. In a letter to his mother of October 8, 1944, sent from Belgium, among other things John wrote that he was safe and well and that he got plenty of sleep and food. He also wrote that he found the Belgian people clean, hospitable and very handsome. He further wrote that he had ice cream and cherry pie in Ghent and that he had visited Bruges. John closed the letter with the following words: ‘Pretty soon Woodville and North Bay again for me. Lots of love to you all.’ In the winter of 1944/ 1945, after the Allied advance had stalled following the failed attempt to cross the Rhine river at Arnhem, John commanded the Algonquin Regiment’s ‘D’ Company in Heusden, a town at the Maas river which separated the recently liberated part of the Netherlands from the territory that was still occupied by the German enemy. The chapter of Warpath that describes this episode includes some examples of ‘little odd incidents that will be recalled and retold for years to come’. In one of these John plays the lead, which is described as follows: ‘And the Jam Factory! A treasure-trove of all sorts of things, with an indignant owner who finally even braved the German fire, for the factory was directly on the river bank, to investigate personally his convictions that his stock was disappearing alarmingly. To do this was lèse-majesté, for while Capt. Johnny Jewell commanded “D” Company in Heusden, he was the “laird o’ the manor,” and he stood for no trifling. Heusden was Johnny’s town, and he ran it with an iron hand. It was really not his fault, but fate’s, that, in spite of strict orders against looting, a vagrant buzz- bomb one morning blew in all the store fronts and miraculously transported most of a stationery store into “D” Company’s H.Q,. From then on, it was Johnny’s boast that if it came to a showdown, he could issue twice as much “bumpf” as the Adjutant, having no paper shortage, nor shortage of ideas, either’. On February 22, 1945, the Algonquin regiment was transported to the Hochwald area in Germany, where they would be deployed within the context of operation Blockbuster. The objective of this operation was to break through the Siegfried Line, of which the Hochwald forest formed a hinge, in order to be able to cross the Rhine river near Xanten in Germany. After initially penetrating a gap in the Hochwald forest, the Regiment could not advance any further and had to remain there for four days under terrible shelling. In spite of their fatigue, on the fifth night they were ordered to press on with their attack through the Hochwald gap. The original plan was for this attack to be made under the cover of darkness, but now the advance had to be started shortly before dawn. 6 The men of ‘D’ Company, some thirty-seven all ranks in strength, were to push forward through the gap, mounted on tanks, in order to take a small train bridge over the Hohe Ley, a small river west of Xanten, which formed an obstruction for Allied armor on its way to the Rhine river. Warpath describes the start of this hazardous adventure as follows: ‘As yet the only enemy reaction had been several flurries of mortar fire in the gap shoulder area. This caused several casualties and complicated the business of mounting the men on the tanks. However, Capt. “Johnny” Jewell, commanding the force, calmly organized his men, and with superb discipline, they got on the iron monsters and prepared to hang on for dear life as they pitched over the rolling ground’. Due to a combination of factors, including stronger (remaining) enemy presence than anticipated and malfunctioning radio contact, ‘D’ Company got cut off from the tanks and other support and was trapped by the enemy. In the 48 hours that followed, several unsuccessful attempts were made to get tanks and patrols forward to them, at the cost of many casualties. Section of map of the Hochwald gap, shown in Warpath, page 262. Meanwhile, ‘D’ Company made a heroic stand against enemy armor and infantry, which included capturing a German prisoner of war and demobilizing a German Tiger tank. Once it became evident to the enemy that ‘D’ Company had no tank support, their armor became bolder and 7 they managed to virtually encircle the position. As the men ran out of ammunition, the enemy overran them. As a consequence, John was killed by shell-burst, while others were wounded and many were captured and taken prisoner of war. In the chapter of Warpath that describes this episode, the following is written about John’s tragic loss: ‘The loss of Capt. Jewell we were all to feel keenly. He had always been a cool and unimpassioned leader, accepting without question or demur even the most difficult of tasks, and proving always an example of soldierliness to his men.’ In a letter of March 8, 1945, Elisabeth Desjardins, John’s mother in law, wrote the following to John’s mother: ‘Helene is prostrated with grief and we all are. We every one of us adored him for his upright manhood. Helene had him in her mind constantly and wrote him every day.’ A letter from Lieutenant Colonel R.A. Bradburn of the Algonquin Regiment to Mrs. Jewell, dated March 11, 1945, in which he described the circumstances of John’s death, closed with the following words about John: ‘From his work on the days previous I had written a citation for him which now so unfortunately can not go through.

The views expressed in the paper do not necessarily represent the views of the School or the Department of National Defence TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT 3 Introduction 4 Determinants of Force Structuring 7 Canadian Defence Policy 16 Specialization, Transformation and Canadian Defence 29 Conclusion 36 REFERENCES 38 ABOUT THE AUTHOR 40 2 ABSTRACT Canada is facing a force structuring dilemma. In spite of Ottawa’s desire to promote international peace and stability alongside the United States and the United Nations, Canada’s minimalist approaches to defence spending and capital expenditures are undermining the long-term viability of the Canadian Forces’ (CF) expeditionary and interoperable capabilities. Two solutions to this dilemma present themselves: increased defence spending or greater force structure specialization. Since Ottawa is unlikely to increase defence spending, specialization provides the only practical solution to the CF’s capabilities predicament. Though it would limit the number of tasks that the CF could perform overseas, specialization would maximize the output of current capital expenditures and preserve the CF’s interoperability with the US military in an age of defence transformation. This paper thus argues that the economics of Canadian defence necessitate a more specialized CF force structure.

  • GAUTHIER John Louis
    Gauthier, John Louis Private Algonquin Regiment Royal Canadian Infantry Corps C122588 John Louis Gauthier was born on Aug. 28, 1925 to French-Canadian parents, John Alfred Gauthier (1896-1983) and Clara Carriere (1900-1978) living in the Town of Renfrew, Ontario. The family also comprised James (1929-1941); Margaret (1932 died as an enfant); Blanche (1933-present) and Thomas (1937- present). Mr. Gauthier worked at the factory of the Renfrew Electric and Refrigeration Company. Jackie, as he was affectionately known, attended Roman Catholic elementary school and spent two years at Renfrew Collegiate Institute. After leaving high school, he went to work as a bench hand at the same factory as his father. In the summers, he was also a well-liked counsellor at the church youth camp in Lake Clear near Eganville, Ontario. Both his sister, Blanche, and brother, Thomas, recall Jackie’s comments when he decided to sign up for military at the age of 18 years old. “He told our mother that ‘Mom, if I don’t come back, you can walk down Main Street (in Renfrew) and hold your head high‘,” said Blanche. “In those days, men who didn’t volunteer to go overseas to war were called ‘zombies‘.” It was a common term of ridicule during the Second World War; Canadians were embroiled in debates about conscription or compulsory overseas military service. Many men had volunteered to go but others avoided enlistment. By mid-1943, the government was under pressure to force men to fight in Europe and the Far East. 1 Jackie Gauthier had enlisted on Oct.

  • Canadian Infantry Combat Training During the Second World War
    SHARPENING THE SABRE: CANADIAN INFANTRY COMBAT TRAINING DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR By R. DANIEL PELLERIN BBA (Honours), Wilfrid Laurier University, 2007 BA (Honours), Wilfrid Laurier University, 2008 MA, University of Waterloo, 2009 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy degree in History University of Ottawa Ottawa, Ontario, Canada © Raymond Daniel Ryan Pellerin, Ottawa, Canada, 2016 ii ABSTRACT “Sharpening the Sabre: Canadian Infantry Combat Training during the Second World War” Author: R. Daniel Pellerin Supervisor: Serge Marc Durflinger 2016 During the Second World War, training was the Canadian Army’s longest sustained activity. Aside from isolated engagements at Hong Kong and Dieppe, the Canadians did not fight in a protracted campaign until the invasion of Sicily in July 1943. The years that Canadian infantry units spent training in the United Kingdom were formative in the history of the Canadian Army. Despite what much of the historical literature has suggested, training succeeded in making the Canadian infantry capable of succeeding in battle against German forces. Canadian infantry training showed a definite progression towards professionalism and away from a pervasive prewar mentality that the infantry was a largely unskilled arm and that training infantrymen did not require special expertise. From 1939 to 1941, Canadian infantry training suffered from problems ranging from equipment shortages to poor senior leadership. In late 1941, the Canadians were introduced to a new method of training called “battle drill,” which broke tactical manoeuvres into simple movements, encouraged initiative among junior leaders, and greatly boosted the men’s morale.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. : A Historiography of C Force FEATURE A Historiography of C Force TONY BANHAM Abstract: Following the Japanese invasion of Hong Kong in 1941, a small number of books covering the then Colony’s war experiences were published. Although swamped by larger and more significant battles, the volume of work has expanded in the years since and is no longer insignificant. This historiography documents that body of literature, examining trends and possible future directions for further study with particular respect to the coverage of C Force. h e f a t e o f the 1,975 men and two women of C Force, sent T to Hong Kong just before the Japanese invaded, has generated a surprising volume of literature. It was fate too that a Canadian, Major General Arthur Edward Grasett, was the outgoing commander of British troops in China— including the Hong Kong garrison— in mid-1941 (being replaced that August by Major General Christopher M altby of the Indian army), and fate that his determination that the garrison be reinforced would see a Briton, Brigadier John Kelburne Lawson, arrive from Canada in November 1941 as commander of this small force sent to bolster the colony’s defences.

  • The Canadian Militia in the Interwar Years, 1919-39
    THE POLICY OF NEGLECT: THE CANADIAN MILITIA IN THE INTERWAR YEARS, 1919-39 ___________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ___________________________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY __________________________________________________________ by Britton Wade MacDonald January, 2009 iii © Copyright 2008 by Britton W. MacDonald iv ABSTRACT The Policy of Neglect: The Canadian Militia in the Interwar Years, 1919-1939 Britton W. MacDonald Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2008 Dr. Gregory J. W. Urwin The Canadian Militia, since its beginning, has been underfunded and under-supported by the government, no matter which political party was in power. This trend continued throughout the interwar years of 1919 to 1939. During these years, the Militia’s members had to improvise a great deal of the time in their efforts to attain military effectiveness. This included much of their training, which they often funded with their own pay. They created their own training apparatuses, such as mock tanks, so that their preparations had a hint of realism. Officers designed interesting and unique exercises to challenge their personnel. All these actions helped create esprit de corps in the Militia, particularly the half composed of citizen soldiers, the Non- Permanent Active Militia. The regulars, the Permanent Active Militia (or Permanent Force), also relied on their own efforts to improve themselves as soldiers. They found intellectual nourishment in an excellent service journal, the Canadian Defence Quarterly, and British schools. The Militia learned to endure in these years because of all the trials its members faced. The interwar years are important for their impact on how the Canadian Army (as it was known after 1940) would fight the Second World War.

    2 Joining the Reserves What is the Reserve Force? The Reserve Force is a large branch of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). It is made up of people from the community who work in the CAF part time or full time. Members of the Reserve Force are called Reservists. Most Reservists also have other jobs. Alternatively, the Regular Force consists of members that work full time. These Did you know? members are also available at a moment’s notice to respond to any natural disasters or The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) was threat to national security. previously referred to as the Canadian Forces (CF). The name was changed in 2013 to give a truer sense of the purpose of our troops. Who joins the Reserve Force? People join the Reserves for many different reasons. Some want adventure, a chance to serve others, a challenge, or a second income. However, something all Reservists have in common is a wish to serve their country. A career in the Canadian Armed Forces is a call to duty. The soldiers, sailors, airmen, and airwomen who answer this call want to help others, and they are determined to defend and protect what they believe in. Military families “Strength Behind the Uniform.” 3 About this handbook Why do we have an Orientation Handbook? The Reserve Force is a large branch of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). In the Canadian Armed Forces, we say that military families are the Strength Behind the Uniform. Families support Reservists during relatively small commitments like weekend training and summer courses. Families also support Reservists during major events, for example, when the Reservists are sent to other parts of Canada or the world.
