Remember Newsletters

This is the twenty-seventh in a series of quarterly newsletters originally recognizing 100th anniversary events of the First World War, with emphasis on Edmonton’s 49th Battalion, and 75th anniversary events of the Second World War, with emphasis on The Edmonton Regiment/The Loyal Edmonton Regiment.  These stories came to an end with our 2019-1 and 2020-3 editions respectively.

Having reached this point, we will need to change our emphasis from, but certainly not ignoring, the two major wars.  There are still many stories to be told about our regiment, past and present, including our newest series of articles on our regimental commanding officers.  We will also expand our focus on the museum itself with articles related to more current events and with stories about some of the interesting artefacts and archival materials in our collection.

In this issue we highlight the service of Colonel Louis Scott, O.B.E., D.S.O., E.D., in the PPCLI and Edmonton Regiment, as well as regimental war artist Freeman Lewis and the new book Our Quarrel with the Foe, Edmonton’s Soldiers 1914-1918.  For more on this read the article in our latest newsletter at the link below.
