The name “Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry” is used in connection with a number of different entities: the three battalions, the wider group of Extra-Regimentally Employed (ERE) members, and retired members supporting the efforts of those still serving. The Regular Battalions are established as individual line units and are designated operational units of the Canadian Forces. These three battalions are grouped together to form the Regiment known as Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry. The “Regiment” is neither a unit nor an entity within the Armed Forces order of battle. It is not in the chain of command, nor does it have a single Regimental commander. The term “Regiment” refers to the serving component: our three Regular Force Battalions, our Regular Force personnel who are Extra-Regimentally Employed, our soldiers who have re-mustered to other Canadian Armed Forces occupations, and the Loyal Edmonton Regiment (4 PPCLI), an Army Reserve unit. The term "Regimental Family" refers to serving and retired members of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) posted to PPCLI battalions or Battle Groups (including reservists and support trades), members of the Loyal Edmonton Regiment (4 PPCLI), Titular and Honorary Patricias as defined in Annexes B and C to this chapter, members of affiliated Cadet Corps, and their respective families. 2. The three Regimental Entities are the serving component, the PPCLI Association and the PPCLI Foundation.1 Therefore, the unofficial but popular motto “Once a Patricia, Always a Patricia” reflects the family spirit that exemplifies service within the Regiment.

  • Lieutenant Colonel (Ret’D) Dan Dempsey, Cd
    LIEUTENANT COLONEL (RET’D) DAN DEMPSEY, CD A pilot by profession, Dan Dempsey’s motivation towards an aviation career was fostered by his boyhood fascination watching the RCAF Golden Hawks aerobatic team perform. Born in Hamilton, Ontario to an air force father who worked at Mount Hope, he grew up near RCAF Stations Rockcliffe (Ottawa), Lincoln Park (Calgary) and Namao (Edmonton). His passion for flying led to a 23 year career with the Canadian Forces. A graduate of Royal Roads Military College in Victoria, British Columbia and the Royal Military College of Canada in Kingston, Ontario, he holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Applied Science. Dan earned his private pilot license in 1972 at the Victoria Flying Club while attending Royal Roads and his Air Force wings at CFB Moose Jaw in June 1975. Having subsequently instructed on the CT-114 Tutor for four years, Dan was selected to fly one of the coveted solo positions with the Snowbirds (Snowbird 9) for the 1980-1981 airshow seasons. He then trained on the CF-5 Freedom Fighter and CF-104 Starfighter at Cold Lake, Alberta, subsequently flying the Starfighter with both 439 and 441 Tactical Fighter Squadrons based in Baden-Soellingen, West Germany. Returning to command 431 Air Demonstration Squadron in 1989 and 1990, he was honoured to lead the Snowbirds through their 20th anniversary and 1,000th official performance. A distinguished graduate of the Canadian Forces Command and Staff College in Toronto, Dan was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel following his Snowbird tour and served as Executive Assistant to the Commander Air Command where he was successful in initiating several important air force heritage projects, including the designation of CFBs Bagotville and Cold Lake to 3 and 4 Wings respectively following the closure of Canadian Forces Europe.

  • 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.

  • The Loyal Toast– ‘To the Queen and the Craft’
    The Loyal Toast– ‘To the Queen and the Craft’ And to his liege lord the king, Be true to him over all things. The oldest Masonic document in existence, the Regius Manuscript or Halliwell Manuscript, which is dated c.1390 and now deposited in the British Museum, contains these lines in the Fourteenth Point. The Old Charges of the fifteenth century called on Masons to be true to God, true liegemen to the King, and true to the Craft. The Charges of a Freemason printed in the Constitution of our Grand Lodge (Part VI – 2006) contain this statement: “kings and princes in every age have been disposed to encourage the Craftsmen on account of their peaceableness and loyalty.” Thus, loyalty to the Sovereign has ever been and still is an essential principle of Freemasonry. The custom of toasting at Masonic banquets is a tradition of long standing, an inherited ritual observed in the early 1700’s and probably before. [i] First place is always given to The Loyal Toast – ‘To the Queen and the Craft.’ The significance of the united toast is that loyalty to the Sovereign is an essential principle of Freemasonry. It has been suggested that: “The custom of toasts at our festive meetings is so old as to have become a social landmark – it should not be lightly abandoned or tampered with to any serious extent. … We should retain the combined form by all means, and we should do so whether the reigning Monarch is or is not a Freemason.” [ii] Many members of the Royal Family in Great Britain have been active Freemasons and several Royal Dukes have served as the Grand Master.

  • A Brief Account of the University of Saskatchewan Contingent, Canadian Officers Training Corps
    A Brief Account of the University of Saskatchewan Contingent, Canadian Officers Training Corps By D. F. Robertson VE Day in Europe was 8 May 1945, some sixty years ago. Fighting against Japan continued until the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki on 8 and 9 August with the official surrender on VJ Day shortly thereafter. On 1 September 1945 the Canadian element of the newly formed Pacific Force was disbanded. One of the more immediate results of all this meant the release from the three services, by one calculation, of some 495,000 personnel. While many returned to their previous occupations a very large number, estimated at 150,000,1 took advantage of government sponsored education in Canadian universities. Former President W. P. Thompson, in The University of Saskatchewan, A Personal History, pointed out that the first of these, “air crew and those who had been wounded, sick or disabled,” began to return to the University of Saskatchewan in 1943. By 1946 there were more than 2,500 and by 1951 most had either finished their course or had left for other reasons.2 But this was not the first encounter of the university with military life. The story really began during the Great War with the formation of the University of Saskatchewan Contingent of the Canadian Officers Training Corps in December 1915. There had been a form of military training, apparently largely drill and marching, carried out in the earlier days of the war. However with the official formation under the command of C. J. Mackenzie, a civil engineer who became Dean many years later, the unit found itself “the most gratuitous of military formations – a draft finding unit – and so the Saskatchewan men reinforced the McGill University Contingent, the Princess Pats and the 28th Battalion.”3 These are the words of President J.
