The Canadian Corps - 1st Canadian Division – World War I

Formed in August of 1914, the 1st Canadian Division was initially made up from Provisional Battalions that were named after their Province of origin but these Provisional titles were dropped before the Division arrived in Britain on October 14, 1914.

After being stationed at Salisbury Plain in England, the 1st Canadian Division embarked for France during February of 1915 where its members served under Major-General Arthur Currie in both France and Flanders until Armistice Day.
