No 6. Mobile Veterinary Section C.S.E.F. at New Westminster, B.C. 9/12/18

On 12 August 1918, just as the Allies were launching their Hundred Days Campaign at Amiens, Canada’s Privy Council passed legislation approving the formation of the Canadian Siberian Expeditionary Force (C.S.E.F.). As fighting ceased on the Western Front, a total of 4,210 Canadians would begin their mobilization to Vladivostok, Russia.
