THE ALGONQUIN REGIMENT
LE REGIMENT ALGONQUIN

[plaque]
The Algonquin Regiment

The Algonquin Regiment evolved from the Northern Pioneers formed after
World War I from a number of northern Ontario military units. When the
Algonquin Regiment was mobilized for active service on July 22, 1940,
its purpose was to assist in the defeat of Adolph Hitler's Nazi Germany and
its allies. 130 men from the Parry Sound area flocked to join A Company of
the Algonquins at local recruiting centres.

Over the next 5 years they trained in Canada and England, then saw active
service in Normandy, Belgium and Holland. On May 7th, 1945, the Algonquin
Regiment's long road ended as they stood victorious beyond the Rhine in
the German town of Rastede. On many occasions, from Normandy through
to Germany, its was the Algonquin task to establish bridgeheads across the
rivers and canals through which the Fourth Division advanced. Hence our
motto "Ne-Ka-Ne-Tah"(We lead, others follow).

The cost in human terms was 1300 killed, wounded, and missing in action.
372 of this number gave their lives as the price for freedom we enjoy
today. Their names are forever recorded on the monument you see here.

The Algonquin Regiment Memorial was unveiled on September 23, 2012. It recognizes the 372 members of the regiment who lost their lives in the Second World War. The ceremony began with a parade of The Algonquin Regiment from the CNR station on Church Street to a Freedom of Municipality and inspection of troops in front of the Town Hall before proceeding to the memorial site.

Sanderson Monument was awarded the contract to design and erect the memorial. It towers roughly 8' high and 6.5' wide and is in the shape of The Algonquin Regiment's badge. Grey granite envelopes the 372 names etched in black granite. The memorial was built through the efforts spearheaded by the last remaining Algonquin Veterans and was their way to deal with the trauma of losing people around them on the battlefield.

For Algonquin Veteran Jack Patterson it was the culmination of a dream, spawned by the emotional experience of visiting the graves of fallen Algonquin comrades overseas. Veteran James Broomfield drove a jeep bringing wounded soldiers back from the front lines, a role which brought him under frequent fire. He was captured in the woods of Holland and spent nearly a year in the Stalag XI-B German prisoner of war camp. Barbara Monk travelled from the Kingston area to the ceremony to honour her father Major Lyle Monk who led the Algonquins in Normandy, Belgium and Holland. Although he survived the war, he died in 1961. Patterson served under him and Broomfield was his driver.

The Algonquin Regiment evolved from the Northern Pioneers formed after the First World War from a number of northern Ontario military units. When The Algonquin Regiment was mobilized for active service on July 22, 1940, its purpose was to assist in the defeat of Adolph Hitler's Nazi Germany and its Allies. 130 men from the Parry Sound area flocked to join A Company of the Algonquins at local recruiting centers.

In 1919, the Town Council of Gravenhurst determined there should be a memorial to fallen soldiers of the Great War. The Women’s Institute approached Council in 1923, raised money, hired a Veteran to plan the memorial and a stone mason to build it. 

Bert Hawker, a Veteran, designed the two pillars which stood at the entrance sidewalk to the Opera House/Town Hall/Municipal Council Chambers. They were nine feet tall, made of Muskoka pink granite, and fixed with a light atop each so that the names would never be in darkness. Each pillar carried a carved stone plaque with the names of the known fallen, at that time - 16 men. Neil Christenson, a stone mason whose two sons had fought in the Great War and returned, built the two stone pillars. The project was completed in 1923.

In 1970, the pillars were de-constructed, and the stone and plaques were used to create a new memorial wall back from the main sidewalk and stretching between the Opera House and the Carnegie Library with an additional bronze plaque listing the fallen from the Second World War.

In 2000, the Memorial Wall was de-constructed, the plaques were placed in the furnace room at the Legion and a new memorial was created. Additional names were added to the fallen of the Great War. The names added were not men from Gravenhurst, but rather men who had died during treatment for tuberculosis at one of three Sanatoriums in operation during and following the Great War. These men had been buried here - usually because their families were not in Canada, their families could not be found, or their families did not have the money to bring their loved one home. There are now 26 names from the First World War on the memorial.
