The Canadian soldier From D-Day to Ve-Day In the same line as The British Soldier , this new book in the series is giving a deserved in-depth study to the gallant troops of Canada who came — first of all from North America — to fight on the European soil during World War II. The greenish Battle Dresses have replaced the kaki ones, but the themes covered by this book are treated in the same logical way : headdresses, uniforms, insignia, medals, individual kit and field equipment, organisation, armament, vehicles. Our Canadian cousins have also taken part to our Liberation, have been too often kept in the background of their British allied ; we have got to take our hat to them.
