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 Debert Military Camp, Nova Scotia. It has entries about training, skiing, men going and coming back on furloughs, continuing with the weekly best barrack room competition for the Parker Cup, the Regimental School, a boxing tournament, and quarantining a man with a suspected case of spinal meningitis, among other activities and information.
