A rather uncoomon find. First raised in the 1860?s as The
Norfolk Rifles, to combat the increasing attacks by the "Fenians" from south of the border. Its regimental headquarters was at Simcoe and had companies at Simcoe, Villa Nova, Port Rowan, Walsingham (Pleasant Hill) and Waterford,
Ontario. On 22 December 1915, the 133rd Battalion (Norfolk's Own), CEF estblished. They embarked for Great Britain.
and after its arrival in the UK, on 12 November 1916, the battalion?s personnel were absorbed by the 23rd Reserve Battalion CEF to provide reinforcements for the
Canadian Corps in the field. On the 17th of July 1917, the 133rd Battalion, CEF was disbanded. The regiment was converted to a Line Regiment in
1928. In 1936, the regiment was changed from infantry to artillery to become part of the 56th Field Artillery
Regiment, RCA and went on to fight in WWII.
Guaranteed 100% genuine.
