Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) Regimental Manual Third Edition 2015 Lord Strathcona’s Horse (Royal Canadians) Regimental Manual Third Edition 2015 LORD STRATHCONA’S HORSE (ROYAL CANADIANS) REGIMENTAL MANUAL Third Edition (First Edition 1990) (Second Edition 2004) (Third Edition 2015) © Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) Regimental Society, 2015 REGIMENTAL MANUAL AMENDMENT RECORD Amendment Date of Amendment Amendment Number 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. REGIMENTAL MANUAL FOREWORD FOREWORD Regiments are prolific in the world. Some have numbers to identify them (German Panzer Battalion 393; R22eR; etc.). Others have names from the type of unit and the role played as light or heavy cavalry (Scots Dragoon Guards; French 4e Régiment de Chasseurs). Some are associated with places (The Ontario Regiment; South Alberta Light Horse). We belong to a small group that is identified with an individual (Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry; Governor General's Horse Guards). What makes the Lord Strathcona’s Horse (Royal Canadians) unique is that we are named after an individual who used his own money to raise a unit to fight in a foreign war. That individual had an exceptional impact on Canada’s future. Whether it was his association with the exploration of the west through the Hudson’s Bay Company, his singular vote in Parliament that ousted a government, or his driving of the Last Spike of the Canadian Pacific Railroad, there is no question that Donald Smith, Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal was an extraordinary individual. The soldiers that carried his name into battle in the Boer War were unique in their own right. They were “drawn from the prairie country and British Columbia” with “preference …to be given to good riders and good shots”. 1 What does this background have to do with a Regimental Manual? Everything. A Regiment is not a commodity that can be bought online. It is an entity that embodies combat soldiers who have a common purpose and are bound by traditions and culture. The strength of the Canadian Army has been the regimental system. The strength of the Strathconas stems from our western heritage, our deeply entrenched sense of professionalism, and our spirited ‘can do attitude’ in arduous and often lethal conditions. The Regimental Manual documents who we are and how we are defined. It outlines our history, tradition, and culture. It is our route map of where we have been and how we strive to be relevant. Customs and traditions can and should fittingly change with the times. What was de rigueur in the past may no longer be appropriate now. Hence, the Regimental Manual should be regularly reviewed and updated. As best described in the 2nd edition of the Regimental Manual by former Colonel of the Regiment LGen Jim Fox … “The Regimental Manual … provides a record for all to show how we should conduct ourselves as Strathconas and the reasons why we do so… As such, our customs and traditions contribute in a positive way to the esprit de corps of the Regiment …”. The Strathcona esprit de corps is widely known and highly respected. “Living in an atmosphere of soldierly duty and esprit de corps permeates the soul, where drill merely attunes the muscles.” 2 This Regimental Manual is all about the Strathcona soul. Read it well, and often.

I encourage every member of the Regimental Family, whether you are currently serving, attached, retired, or affiliated, to read through and see yourself within these pages. Every effort has been made to ensure that this most recent edition of the Regimental Manual is as reflective as possible of those currently serving and recently retired. Those involved in the first two editions of the Regimental Manual, notably Colonel (Retired) Keith Eddy and Lieutenant-Colonel (Retired) Vince Fagnan respectively, should be commended for their diligent research and commitment. Major Peter Beitz initially established the framework and organisation for the updates to the Third Edition. Subsequently, many of the updates themselves were completed by Captain Ryan Lee, Captain Ali Raju, Captain Phillip Webster, and Lieutenant Justin Rice. Their efforts to accurately summarize all of the changes to this edition were often difficult and should not be understated. One of the events that prompted this update was the Regiment’s participation in Canada’s longest armed conflict in Afghanistan from 2002-2014. Although the Second Edition was published in 2004, there was no way of knowing at that time that the Strathcona’s would eventually see tanks return into service for combat operations in Kandahar Province in 2006. From 2006-2010, the Regiment deployed eight consecutive tank squadrons to the Panjwayi District. The updates reflected in this Third Edition are current as of June 2015. Much of the information was provided by our very own Warrant Officer ‘Ted’ MacLeod, the curator of the Strathcona Gallery of The Military Museums in Calgary. The Strathcona Gallery was re-dedicated 25 November 2014 after an extensive five-year renovation and now reflects our status as being the only regiment in the Canadian Army to have participated in every one of our country’s foreign conflicts since Confederation. On a personal note, I was made to read the Second Edition of the Regimental Manual in its entirety before arriving at the Regiment for the first time in October 2007 as a subaltern. Although not a replacement for actual service at the Regiment, it provided me with an excellent picture of what would be expected of me upon my arrival. Since then, I have relied upon it regularly as a guide, as a resource, and as a companion to every aspect of Regimental life. I sincerely hope that this Third Edition provides the future members of our great Regiment the same sense of awe and direction it did for me. The Regimental Society will be responsible for keeping the Regimental Manual up to date and for publishing amendments as approved by the Board of Directors. Comments on the Regimental Manual should be sent to the Regimental Second-in-Command, Lord Strathcona’s Horse (Royal Canadians), Steele Barracks, P.O. Box 10500 Station Forces, Edmonton, Alberta, T5J 4J5. Other contact information can be found at the Regimental Society website at www.strathconas.ca. Perseverance, T.W.F.

  • 1 the Crown and Honours
    The Crown and Honours: Getting it Right Christopher McCreery I N T R O D U C T I O N In the words of that early scholar of Commonwealth autonomy, Sir Arthur Berridale Keith, “The Crown is the fount of all honour.”i The role of the Crown as the fount of all official honours in Canada is a precept that is as old and constant as is the place of the Crown in our constitutional structure. Since the days of King Louis XIV residents of Canada have been honoured by the Crown for their services with a variety of orders, decorations and medals. The position of the Crown in the modern Canadian honours system is something that is firmly entrenched, despite consistent attempts to marginalize it in recent years. Indeed honours are not something separate from the Crown, they are an integral element of the Crown. A part that affords individuals with official recognition for what are deemed as good works, or in the modern context, exemplary citizenship. Just last year we witnessed the Queen’s direct involvement in the honours system when she appointed Jean Chrétien as a member of the Order of Merit. While many commentators and officials in Canada seemed confused as to just what this honour is – the highest civil honour for service – people did realize how significant it was, in large part because it came not from a committee or politician, but directly from the Sovereign. With this paper I will delve into the central role the Crown and Sovereign play in the creation of honours and I will also explore the areas where attention and reform are required in the Canadian honours system.

  • 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.

  • 27Th (Winnipeg Bulldogs) Battalion 1914 - 1918
    27th (Winnipeg Bulldogs) Battalion 1914 - 1918 The 27th (City of Winnipeg) Infantry Battalion, nicknamed the Winnipeg Bulldogs, began recruiting October 21st 1914 with mobilization headquarters at Winnipeg being authorized under General Order 35 of March 15th 1915. The battalion was raised by the 99th Manitoba Rangers and sailed for England May 17th 1915 with 33 officers and 1039 OR's under command of Lieutenant-Colonel I.R. Snider (99th Manitoba Rangers) where it was assigned to the 6th Infantry Brigade, 2nd Canadian Division serving for the duration of the war being disbanded under General Order 149 September 15th 1920. The 27th Battalion was immediately reconstituted as a regiment of the Canadian Militia under the designation the Manitoba Regiment authorized under General Order 29 of March 15th 1920. The regiment being disbanded in the 1936 reorganization of the Canadian Militia. The regimental numbers block for the 27th Canadian Infantry Battalion was 71001 - 73000. The 27th Battalion had a pipe band with ten pipers and five drummers. Other ranks The 27th Battalion was presented with cap and collar badges by the Mayor of Winnipeg prior to entraining for the East coast. This issue was made by D.R. Dingwall of Winnipeg which continued to supply badges to the 27th Battalion until 1917. This makes the chronology of the issues of badges to this battalion impossible. Varieties are noted with the design featuring the Coat-of-Arms of Manitoba, In the escutcheon is a railway engine with tender on one type the engine is ‘small’ with three wheels while on the other the engine is ‘large’ with four wheels.

  • 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.
