"It was my great honour and privilege to have the Loyal Edmonton Regiment as one of the infantry battalions under my command in the Sicilian and Italian campaigns in World War II. The achievements of this great Canadian infantry regiment were built by the blood, sweat and tears of its officers and men in battle. Those who survived must ensure that these achievements endure, particularly for the people of the part of Canada to which the regiment belongs, and for succeeding generations of officers and men of the Regiment." - C.
