Sending our love to you on Valentine's Day!
Today (February 8th) marks the 130th anniversary of the birth of Billy Bishop. As we celebrate the man who would become Canada's most decorated war hero, let's look back on some photographs from his childhood.
For the month of February, The 2023 Honouring Our Local Veterans Plaques will be housed at the Owen Sound Constituency Office of Alex Ruff, MP. The next time you are by the office, stop in and read about the local veterans that we commemorated last year.
Wee Billy wanted to take part in #museumselfieday but his arms are a little short so he had some help from his friends at the Museum! #weebilly #local #community #museum #owensound #rcaf #billybishop
Our staff and volunteers will be taking a break to celebrate the holidays, and looking forward to an exciting 2024!
80 years ago… As the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment spearheaded a flanking move to the west of Ortona on the morning of December 23, 1943, Lieutenant Douglas Anderson was killed in action …. Facebook.com/billybishopmus…

Today, on Vimy Ridge Day, we remember and honor the valor and sacrifice of the Canadians who fought at Vimy Ridge, along with all those who served during the First World War, to protect and uphold the ideals of the peace and freedoms that we value and enjoy today.
Royal Military College (RMC) homecoming was a blast this weekend as they joined in celebrating the RCAF Centennial!
We remember the courage & sacrifice of the 3,598 Cdns who died & 7,000 more who were wounded during the 4-day battle of Vimy Ridge in 1917. I’ve had the honour to pay my respects at Vimy 3 times: 98, 10 & 22. These pics I took on #VimyRidgeDay in 2022. #lestweforget #propatria
#OTD in 1917 the Battle of Vimy Ridge was fought. More than 10,600 Canadians were killed or wounded, yet Vimy was strategically insignificant to the outcome of WWI, and the battle's reputation has been largely the result of nationalist mythmaking.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/vim…
