  • Edmund Fenning Parke. Lance Corporal. No. 654, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry
    Great War in the Villages Project Edmund Fenning Parke . Lance Corporal. No. 654, Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (Eastern Ontario Regiment.) Thirty miles from its source, the River Seven passes the village of Aberhafesp, near to the town of Newtown in the Montgomeryshire (Powys) countryside. It was here on the 20 June 1892 that Edmund Fenning Parke was born. His father, Edward, worked as an Architect and Surveyor and originated from Bidford-on-Avon, Warwickshire. His mother Harriette Elizabeth(nee Dolbey) was born in Newtown. The couple had ten children all born within the surrounding area of their mother’s home town. Edmund was the younger of their two sons. The family were living at The Pentre in Aberhafesp when Edmund was baptised on the 24 th July of the year of his birth. Within a few years the family moved to Brookside in Mochdre i again, only a short distance from Newtown. Edmund attended Newtown High School and indications are that after leaving there he worked as a clerk ii . He also spent some of his free time as a member of the 1/7 th Battalion, The Royal Welsh Fusiliers, a territorial unit based in the town iii . On the September 4 th 1910 however, Edmund set sail on the RMS Empress of Britain from Liverpool bound for a new life in Canada. The incoming passenger manifest records that he was entering Canada seeking work as a Bank Clerk. In the summer of 1914, many in Canada saw the German threat of war, in Europe, as inevitable.

  • 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.

  • Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry
    1 PRINCESS PATRICIA’S CANADIAN LIGHT INFANTRY (Thierens Family Archives) WWAARR DDIIAARRIIEESS11991144 --11991199 Transcribed by Michael Thierens, 1914, 1915 and part of 1916 proofread and commented on by Donna Walker & Ross Toms. The complete War Diary was proofread by Stephen K. Newman, who also made valuable suggestions regarding lay-out and provided much additional information on individual soldiers and diligently researched and pin pointed the locations of the Regiment. [email protected] © Michael Thierens 2008. Introduction The P.P.C.L.I. was an unique regiment in that it was raised and financed by business man A. Hamilton Gault in August 1914 and saw action in France under British command from January 1915 onwards. It was the first Canadian regiment in the field, even though initially only 10 % of the men was Canadian born. More than 5.000 men served with the regiment in France and Flanders, 1300 never returned to Canada. In November 1915 the P.P.C.L.I., together with the Royal Canadian Regiment and the 42nd and 49th Canadian Infantry Battalions, became part of the 7th Canadian Infantry Brigade, 3rd Canadian Division. This War Diary has been transcribed in order that military and family historians and future generations can study the history of the regiment. To preserve the historical significance of these documents, typographical errors in the original documents have been maintained. 1 2 Square brackets [ ] surround information using italics added by the transcriber where it was felt that clarification was required, or where names and/or service numbers were misspelled. Question marks ? were used where the characters/words could not be discerned.

  • Ross Ellis Memorial Lecture Ross Ellis
    Journal of Military and Strategic VOLUME 19, ISSUE 3 Studies Ross Ellis Memorial Lecture Ross Ellis: A Canadian Temperate Hero Geoffrey Hayes Lieutenant-Colonel Ross Ellis was a remarkable soldier who led the Calgary Highlanders, and later his community and province with distinction. Ellis had those powerful but elusive qualities of a leader, defined by a British doctor in 1945: the technical knowledge to lead, but also the moral equipment to inspire.1 This article has two purposes. First it explores briefly what kind of man the wartime Canadian Army sought for its commissioned leadership. It then draws upon the correspondence between Ross Ellis and his wife Marjorie to see how one remarkable soldier negotiated his first weeks in battle in the summer of 1944. These letters reveal how, with Marjorie’s encouragement, Ross Ellis sustained his own morale and nurtured 1 Emanuel Miller, “Psychiatric Casualties Among Officers and Men from Normandy: Distribution of Aetiological Factors.” The Lancet 245, no. 6343 (March 1945): pp. 364–66. ©Centre of Military and Strategic Studies, 2019 ISSN : 1488-559X VOLUME 19, ISSUE 3 a leadership style that would become legendary within the Calgary Highlanders community. Like so many others, Ross Ellis practiced a kind of temperate heroism2 a reaction not only to the idealized, heroic vision of officership in the First World War, but also to British and especially German representations of wartime leadership. The First World War cast a wide shadow over Ross Ellis’ generation. And although much changed between the two wars, there were still remarkable similarities in the way in which soldiers understood and endured the war.

Karsh. – [ca. 1945] Andrew Hamilton “Hammie” Gault, 1882-1958, was descended from an Anglo-Irish merchant family which settled in Montreal in 1842 and became dominant players in Canadian textile manufacturing, insurance, finance, and politics. After attending Bishop's College School in Lennoxville and one year at McGill University, Gault joined the 2nd Canadian Mounted Rifles and served with distinction as a subaltern until the end of the South African War in 1901. He continued to serve with the Canadian militia, eventually becoming a captain with the 5th Royal Highlanders (Black Watch of Canada). Following the death of his father in 1903, he assumed control of Gault Brothers and Company, the family cotton manufacturing firm. He married Marguerite Stephens in 1904. Gault was appointed honorary Consul General for Sweden in 1909-1911, and was a member of the council for the Montreal Board of Trade, 1911-1913. Upon the outbreak of the First World War in August 1914, he offered to finance the raising of Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI). He was appointed Senior Major and Second-in-Command of the Regiment. He was wounded three times, losing his left leg, which effectively ended his active service in the field. He was promoted to Lieutenant-Colonel and Commanding Officer of PPCLI in November 1918. For his service in the Great War, Gault was awarded the Order of the British Empire, the Russian Order of St.
