Trail of the Canadian Army
1939-1945
Between 1939 and 1945 more than one million Canadian men and women served full-time in the armed services. While the Canadian Armed Forces were eventually active in nearly every theatre of war, most combat was centred in Italy, Northwestern Europe and the North Atlantic. Come and follow the trail of the Canadian army – and discover how Canada carried out a vital role in campaigns of Dieppe, Hong Kong, Sicily, and Normandy.
