The war diaries are official records kept by the Battalions during a one month period. They contain the daily orders, correspondence, newsletters, and an intelligence log detailing troop activities, locations, and weather conditions. The war diaries detail the activities and movement of the 1st Battalion from training in Canada and England to active duty on the Western Front and their return to Victoria in January 1946. This diary was kept while at Denton and Seaford, England. It has entries about having another screening of the security film "Next of Kin", various inspections including one for boots, and participating in various exercises including a field firing exercise, among other activities and information.
