Drill Halls and Cadets — Nikki Thornton Photo Files

Nikki Thornton

  · 

Scan of some 35mm positive strips, can really start to tell the difference between source material.

I’d figure the same lads from the Drill Hall or members of the Lanark & Renfrew Scottish Regiment.

The group was made up of high school students from Almonte, Carleton Place, Perth and Lanark. Lots of fun that summer. We took first aid, rescue, map reading, signals, military drills, finishing with 2 weeks of small arms training with FN rifle, hand grenades, mock battles at Camp Petwawa.

Carleton Place Cadets in front of the high school

Peter Bradley

In the ’50’s we wore battle dress uniforms with white belt and gators with bicycle chain to hold your trousers straight and a beret to top it all off, so this picture was before or after that time

Ray Paquette

I agree with Peter. I was a member of the cadet corps (1954-1956) and the band from 1956-1959 during which time we wore olive drab battle dress and berets. The dress of the cadets (wedgies and work dress) was introduced post 1968 and the Forces unification

Dan Williams

I know we recruited a lot of guys from the high school band when we started the OYB band in 1959. I think the majorettes as well. Andy Dunlop, my brother John, Lornie Hudson, Garry Greer and Yappy Brown were the drum line. All from the high school cadet band I think.

Ray Paquette The young man appears to be dressed in an Army Cadet uniform. The store he is in front of was Bowland’s Grocery (Carleton Place) at the time the maple tree was growing out of the side walk. I walked by on my way to and from Central School

Royal Canadian Army Cadets of Carleton Place High School paraded the school grounds. Thanks to Gord Cross for this photo and maybe someone can tell me what year this was..

Larry Clark

My memory is very foggy on this, but I believe Lloyd would have graduated 1955 and I would date this about 1953. Could be that I am in this photo but impossible to tell. The shop teacher Mr. Vought(sic) was the school liaison. I recall target practice in the Gym where they stored a bullet catcher at one end. Perhaps the photographer (Newton) would be a clue.

Fact–A new Militia Hall (1866) was located on Beckwith Street and the Carleton Place area had recently contributed 60 well trained and equipped volunteers during the U.S. Fenian raids into Canada.

Drill halls built in 1866 at county centres including Perth, Carleton Place and Almonte were used for many years. The Carleton Place drill shed was at the market square between Beckwith and Judson Streets, at the former site of the skating rink which is now the library.

Clippings and Memories- Cullen Wright Crawford Prime and Hooper

There was tremendous involvement, and tremendous loss, and over time it has become clear that Carleton Place, given its size, was a remarkable contributor to the war effort.” Fifty men from a pool of perhaps 300 able-bodied men in a total population of what was then 4,000 people died in the First World War. Another 50 perished in the Second World War. And each year on Nov. 11, in events that reach beyond mere ceremony to palpable grief for many relatives and friends of fallen townsfolk, residents of the picturesque town along the Mississippi River gather at Memorial Park to remember their 100 dead and more than 300 others who served and returned.  Randy Boswell—Ottawa Citizen-12 Nov 1998

Carleton Place is proud of two things. It is proud of the athletic prowess of its young men, especially on the water. It is also proud of the manner in which Its young men went to the front in the Great War. Twelve Carleton Place boys Joined the first Canadian contingent. Forty-seven Carleton Place boys sleep in Flanders Fields. The town has remembered their sacrifice by a memorial park and monument, which were bought and erected by public subscriptions.–

A Letter of Love on Remembrance Day Linda Knight Seccaspina

Photo of Frederick J. Knight in the British Army in WW1 who immigrated to Cowansville, Quebec and was one of the founding members and president of Branch #99 Canadian Legion in Cowansville.

Dear Grammy and Grampy, 

November 9, 2021

Tonight I felt I should write you a letter because it’s almost November 11th. Even though you are no longer here, I feel your presence and I know you would be happy to hear Remembrance Day is still firmly planted in my heart. It was always a hallowed event in the Knight family each year and we were up with the birds that day as Grammy used to say. Mocha cakes had to be finished for the Branch #99 Legion refreshments. Shoes and medals were polished, and bodies were trying to warm up in advance for the parade.

I remember that Grampy said I should always keep a stiff upper lip and a Knight family member respects and honours our Legions and veterans. His stories of how hard life was in the cold and the muddy trenches in France during World War 1 have not been forgotten. Not one word of what he and others went through during the first World War will ever leave my mind.

Each Remembrance Day I can still hear Grampy yelling out orders during the parade: ‘left right, left right’.  I was always the last one in the parade every year. I never understood why the Brownies were placed at the end and I was always pulling up the rear in my too short Brownie outfit, bare legs with knee socks, and no boots. 

Standing at the Cowansville High School cenotaph freezing to death and chattering with friends each year I always got the stink eye from Grampy who was always watching me. I could never avoid his stern gaze and I knew he was telling me silently, 

‘Respect, Linda, respect, remember what these men did for you’.

The solo bugle playing The Last Post would always make the odd strange noise from the cold outside on the first few notes and the freezing November breeze would circle around my legs turning them bright red. I could see tears in my Grandfather’s eyes, remembering his friends that never made it home. 

Each Remembrance Day I still remember the past November 11th services. I wish for a lot of things, but now besides remembering all the veterans I pray and hope for the continuation of our local Legions. As you said Grampy: 

‘I have seen war. I hate war!’

For years Grampy lived in pain from being one of the first gassed in the trenches. As he said each time he had a migraine: 

‘I’ll be okay, but in the meantime I just have to hold strong’. 

We are trying Grampy to hold strong, we are trying to keep these Legions solvent and the memories continious, but in the meantime we try to inherit your great examples. We remember each and every soldier who gave up so much for our freedom and ensure they are never forgotten. As you always told me, it’s not just November 11th we should remember them, but every single day, and we should honour the dead best by treating the living well.

I miss you so much..

Your ‘Birdie’,

Linda
