[QUOTE]Originally posted by RCA: [QB]The official history is a little dry but covers everthing - Official History of the Canadian Army in World War Two Volumn II - The Canadians in Italy 1943-1945 by LCol GWL Nicholson. I'm not sure where you can get a copy, but I'm sure someone on this site will know. There is aslo a Vol III about the European Campaign. It has excellent maps and an index of all the Canadian units that fought there. On 13 Jul 44 the 1st LAA Regt RCA was converted to infantry and became the Lanmark and Renfrew Regt which was part of the 12 Infantry Bde, 5th Canadian Armoured Division. (by coincidence, my battery was part of the division artillery) I took this right out of the history. Others books are "The Regiment" by Farley Mowat about the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment ; a book bt Strome Galloway (can't remember the title) about the RCR; and a book that has just came out about the battle for Ortona.[/QB][/QUOTE]
