Mayor's Report to Council CITY OF PRINCE GEORGE Office of the Mayor MAYOR’S REPORT TO COUNCIL Date: March 23, 2011 To: Mayor and Council From: Mayor Dan Rogers Subject: Rocky Mountain Rangers Attachments: Letter from Sheldon Care, Mayor’s Action Committee on the Reserves for Prince George; Media Release- “The Army Reserve is coming to Prince George”. ______________________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION: 1) That Council receives this report. DISCUSSION: After 40 years, Prince George will welcome a new Army Reserve Unit to the city as early as September 2011. The Unit, a detachment of the Rocky Mountain Rangers, will be part of an Army Reserve expansion project. The Rocky Mountain Rangers maintained a detachment in Prince George after World War 2 until the late 1960s when that detachment was closed. The City of Prince George has been working tirelessly with many individuals for a lengthy period of time to ensure this initiative came to fruition. Work both at the administrative and political level has resulted in recent confirmation from the military that a modest expansion to Prince George has been authorized. The attached News Release provides more detail. An official opening is expected later this year once full business arrangements have been completed. Past work in this area included extensive lobbying through the Mayor’s Action Committee on Reserves, Chaired by Sheldon Clare, the efforts to successfully bring back this organization to our community has been achieved. Many citizens volunteered countless hours and it is only appropriate that they be acknowledged and recognized for their community commitment. I will be sending out letters of appreciation to the many who have been involved in supporting this initiative including Mr. Clare, Branch #43 of the Royal Canadian Legion, former Mayor Kinsley and various others, some of whom are mentioned in the attached letter from Mr. Clare. Respectfully submitted, Dan Rogers Mayor RECEIVED MAR i ; 201, CITY MANAGtR'S OFFICE CITY OF PRINCE GEORGE 7 March 2011 Mayor Dan Rogers and Council City of Prince George 1100 Patricia Boulevard V2L3V9 Dear Mayor and Council: Subject: Stand down of Mayor's Action Committee on Reserves It is with great pleasure that I can report that 25 years of advocacy on behalf of the city of Prince George with the aim of having the Canad ia n army establish a reserve unit here has finally succeeded. As you are aware from recent media reports, and discussions with Lieutenant Colonel John Feller, a reserve infantry unit of the Rocky Mountain Rangers is being established in Prince George. You will recall that the committee initially functioned informally from 1986, then was formally established first by the Branch 43 of the Legion and later officially sanctioned by former Mayor Colin Kinsley. My last report to council was in person and by letter of 12 June 2006. I would emphasize that this very good news is the result of the varied contributions of a number of people over a long period of time, and it is appropriate to acknowledge their efforts for the record. In addition to the present mayor and city council and in no particular order these individuals and organizations have included: David E.J. Snider Rick M . Lewis Dan McLaren Roland Krueger Russell Ko Carl Gustafson LCol Tony Walters LCol Al Beck LCol John Feller Daryl Melquist Ed Larabee Colin Kinsley Royal Canadian Legion Branch 43 1 Peacekeepers Association 2618 RM Rangers Army Cadet Corps CNC UNBC RCMP City Detachment and North District Headquarters Jay Hill, MP (retired) Dick Harris, MP I would emphasize that this list is not comprehensive as there were many others who participated from time to time in support of the committee through the listed organizations, within the military, and by writing letters and contacting their Members of Parliament on their own initiative. Members of the Legislative Assembly from this area of all parties have all supported the project at various times over the past 25 years. Re-establishing a unit of the primary reserve in Prince George has been a successful community effort of which I have been both honoured and proud to play a part. As the function of the committee to achieve this goal has been achieved, it is with much pleasure that I respectfully request that the committee be stood down. Yours truly, Sheldon Clare, M.A., B.A., A.A. Chair Mayor's Action Committee on the Reserves for Prince George 2 News Release The Rocky Mountain Rangers NR - 11.004 February 23, 2011 THE ARMY RESERVE IS COMING TO PRINCE GEORGE PRINCE GEORGE, B.C. – Prince George is getting a new Army Reserve unit. As part of an Army Reserve expansion project the new unit, which is a detachment of the famous Rocky Mountain Rangers, is planned for the city as early as September this year. “We‟ve been in discussions with the city for some time now about the feasibility of standing up a Reserve army unit in Prince George,” says Lt.-Col. John Feller, the Commanding Officer of the Rocky Mountain Rangers. “We‟re very encouraged by the community‟s support for an Army Reserve unit in this region, and we look forward to having new soldiers from Prince George become part of the Rangers,” he adds. Reserve soldiers are part-time members of the Canadian Forces that live, work, or attend post secondary school in the communities where they serve. The plan for establishing the new Rocky Mountain Rangers detachment is still in progress, and the Rangers and City officials are working together to prepare future activities and events highlighting the unit‟s move in to the community. “Our recruiting activities will increase in Prince George over the next while,” continues Feller, “and we‟ll be looking to recruit men and women of age that are interested in serving Canada part-time in a number of infantry positions with the Rangers.” “ After 40 years, we are pleased that the Rocky Mountain Rangers are returning to our community,” said Mayor Dan Rogers. “We have been working with many individuals for a lengthy period of time to ensure this initiative came to fruition. On behalf of the City of Prince George, we will welcome the Army reserve with open arms.” The Rocky Mountain Rangers maintained a detachment in Prince George after World War 2 until the late 1960s when that detachment was closed. Since that time, Rangers have fought in every major conflict where Canada has been involved, including the Afghanistan campaign. At home, Rangers have volunteered to help protect our communities during the Kelowna forest fires in 2003 and during the Winter Olympics in 2010. -30- Note to the Editor: For further information or to request an interview with Lt.-Col.

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.

  • Elchuk, Alex Private the Calgary Highlanders, R.C.I.C. M – 39751
    Elchuk, Alex Private The Calgary Highlanders, R.C.I.C. M – 39751 Alex Elchuk was born 16 July,1916 in Desjarlais, Alberta, Canada, the son of Theodore and Dora Elchuk, both born in Austria. He had three older brothers, William, George and John, a younger brother Metro and two older sisters, Jennie and Mary with a younger sister, Annie. He also had an older step brother, Mike. His mother died in the autumn of 1935 when Alex was seventeen years old. He was Roman Catholic but did not go to church until he went into the army. After 8 years at school, he left at the age of fourteen in order to work on the family farm. He himself owned 160 hectares of land in Wandering River, Alberta and planned to settle there after the war. In his free time he liked to play basketball, read and write, smoke a cigarette, with a drink sometimes. In 1940 Canada introduced the National Resources Mobilization Act; available men were asked to register for military service, where in the first instance, recruits would be used to defend the homeland. Later, these men were sent to serve overseas. One of them was Alex Elchuk. On 17 April, 1941, Alex, then twenty two years old, reported for service in Calgary, Alberta and was given the army number: M600521. At that time he had been living in Desjarlais and working on his father’ s farm as a single man. He was described in the records as 1.76m tall, weighing 73 kilos, with blue eyes, dark hair and a light skin colour; he had a scar on his upper lip.

  • What Is the Reserve Force? the Reserve Force Is a Large Branch of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF)
    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.

  • Request for Letter of Support for Local Canadian Armed Forces Primary
    RECEIVl:.U Fm O4 2019 mac 3750 Krumm Avenue CP<U CA Terrace BC iz,A V8GOE8 28 January 2019 Hello Members of Terrace Council, I need your help in establishing a platoon/troop of a Canadian Armed Forces Primary Reserve Unit in the Terrace/Thornhill area. I would like to see a Canadian Armed Forces Primary Reserve Unit established in the community of Terrace, British Columbia. The size would initially be a platoon/troop of 40 personnel led by a 2Lt. or Lt. assisted by a Warrant Officer. These 2 positions would be a full time paid job for at least 2 persons. We have a facility in the form of an unused school which can be used as a headquarters for the platoon. A rifle range is located nearby. I know there are at least a dozen such Units in the lower mainland and they provide an opportunity for youth in these areas to be employed part and full time in the CAF with out having to leave home as we in the north must do. We do have the Canadian Rangers in this area but they are not Primary Reserve and do not offer full time employment. The Cdn Rangers do not offer deployment out of country and seldom deploy in Canada, but for short durations. We have in Terrace at least 7 members of the Primary Reserve who now live in the area yet have no place to parade as the closest Primary Reserve Unit is in Prince George. We also have 28 individuals who wish to join a Primary Reserve Unit and some of these have considered driving to Prince George once a week in order to do so.
