Liberation and photo albums

Every year on 31 August, the residents of the town of Neufchâtel-en-Bray, France celebrate the anniversary of the liberation of their town in 1944 and commemorate the deaths of three Canadian soldiers from the 7^th Canadian Reconnaissance Regiment who died in the process. This page, which was created in 2024, eighty years after the event, documents the respective stories of the soldiers and the town residents.

I invite you to consult our new historical page.

In addition, directly from our museum and the help of John Cochrane, seventeen new photo albums have been added to the regimental albums:
