EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the deep historical significance of Canadian regimental Colours being placed on the Wolfe Monument in Westminster Abbey. The Colours of several Canadian battalions and one artillery battery are seen adorning the monument to General James Wolfe, a key figure in British military history. General Wolfe famously commanded the British army in its decisive victory against the French at the Battle of Quebec in 1759, ultimately losing his life in battle. The placement of these Colours on his monument symbolizes a poignant tribute by Canadian troops before their departure to the front during World War I. The solemnity and import of this moment is palpable as we reflect on the sacrifices made by those who served under General Wolfe's command. The legacy of bravery and dedication to duty lives on through these regimental Colours left under the care of Westminster Abbey, ensuring that their memory endures for generations to come. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we are reminded of the profound impact that individuals like General James Wolfe have had on shaping our shared history. May we never forget their courage and selflessness in service to their country.
