The Calgary Military Historical Society
THE CMHS was a registered not-for-profit society which fostered the study of the military and police heritage of Canada, the British Empire and the world, and the preservation of military artifacts and records.
Having now been dissolved as a society, we hope to continue maintainimg this website as a portal to facilitate the exchange of research and information regarding Canadian military service, history and heritage.
We hope, too, to continue assisting our site's visitors and users to answer their questions regarding family or general Canadian military service and history.
Frequently, members of the Calgary Military Historical Society were asked to assist in finding information about an individual’s military service. Typically, the person has passed on and therefore cannot provide the wanted details or insights. Regardless of the particular circumstances, most of these requests tend to follow similar beginnings.
CMHS members collected or specialized in a wide variety of military artifacts and topics. If you have an artifact you need help identifying, questions about militaria that may have been handed down to you, or questions about military history, our former members may be able to help.
