Do we celebrate our losses as much as our victories?
Interestingly the inner guard where regimental marks are usually placed shows just a couple pin points and the outside there is a ghost of letters and or numbers. An armourer has professionally removed the previous regimental markings likely before being issued to Canadian troops in the UK.
Canada arrived with the 1890p and 1882p swords and exchanging them for the then new 1908p cavalry sword.
