It went to France in 1915 and fought almost _continuously from then until the end of the war. It was the first regiment to enter Mons after the armistice. It the battles of Vimy Courcelette time after time. one of the most units of the Brit- v s composed of French Canadians who were recruited at the outbreak of the World War in the province of Quebec. The language of the regiment is French. alth h the commands are given in sh to prevent confusion when it is serving with Engli ing units of the army. Th glish dubbed the regi ment the * d0oz.” from the French pronunciation of the regiment’s des- ignation. The name stuck, and today it is known as the “Vandooz" through- out Canada. The “Vandooz” took part in 22 major engagements in the World War. In one battle all of the officers were killed except a medical officer, who took command. Its total casualties were over 4,000. The most spectac- ular action in which the regiment was engaged was at Courcelette, Septem- ber 16, 1916, where it took twice its own number in prisoners and inflicted heavy casualties on the Germgns. On that occasion the “Vandooz” Fdvanc- ed more than a mile and a half under fire in the open. Honored by King. After the war the regiment returned to Montreal to be demobilized. It was honored by the King by being given the right to use the word ‘Royal,” and it has since become a member of the permanent military establishment of Canada. The colors of the regi- ment, which will be carried through the streets of Washington, were pre- sented to it by . Fizld Marshal Foch. Although no longer a member of the regiment, Col. L. R. la Fleche, D. 8. 0.,"was with it today when it arrived here. He fought with the regiment in France and was wounded many times. He lost an eye and has a mutilated arm. ” Since the war Col. la Fleche has been largely instru- mental in organizing the Canadian veterans and he is vice president of the Canadian Legion of the British Empire Service League. 1 tomorrow eve- ! m this morning just hefore they Union * e ¢ stay heve i, coimection with fhe received by unds of the White House at | tion, | tomorrow. | ey will march to a in full-dr | with bands ! will Dy | A 1l h and B streets omorrow.
