  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Canadians in the North Pacific, 1943 : Major-General Pearkes and the Kiska Operation
    Canadians in the North Pacific, 1943 : Major-General Pearkes and the Kiska Operation R. H. ROY When Major-General G. R. Pearkes became G.O.C.-in-C. Pacific Com­ mand in September 1942, he was of necessity concerned primarily with the means of defending the province from Japanese attacks. It was not long, however, before he began to think of the offensive/The nearest Japanese forces were on Attu and Kiska, and obviously if they were dislodged the threat to British Columbia would be greatly reduced, These islands, how­ ever, belonged to the United States, and even if they had been Canadian there were insufficient Canadian naval forces available at the Esquimalt naval base either to transport assault troops over the 2,000-mile sea voyage or provide both the protection and bombardment necessary to effect a successful landing. The initiative to dislodge the Japanese must come from the Americans, but the initiative for Canadian participation was to come from Pearkes. On October 10, 1942 accompanied by the United States liaison officer attached to his Headquarters, Pearkes left for a visit to lieutenant-General John L. De Witt, the Commanding General of the United States Fourth Army and the Western Defense Command at San Francisco. Pearkes had a strong desire to establish personal relations with De Witt. He commanded the American forces both to the north and south of Pearkes' Command, and since Pearl Harbour the Canadian and American governments had been co-operating in a number of joint enterprises to strengthen their mili­ tary effort. In Pacific Command, for example, the 1,671-mile Alaska Highway was being pushed to completion under the direction of the U.S.
