The War Diaries for the period in question of the two regiments are available on microfilm reels and can be borrowed through your local Library from Library and Archives Canada on an Inter-Library Loan.

The file references for each are:

for the 3rd Medium Regiment - Reference: RG24, National Defence, Series C-3, Volume 14388, Reel T-15903-15904

and

for the 4th Medium Regiment - Reference: RG24, National Defence, Series C-3, Volume 14394, Reel T-15910-15911

See your local Library for details on borrowing these files from Library and Archives Canada through an Inter-Library Loan.

Cheers

Mark, Clive

Mark,

Many thanks again. I will add this to the list.
Pity, they are not available on line.

The RCA museum in Shilo, Manitoba holds the triplicate copy of the war diaries for all of the Canadian Artillery units.
An email to them through the museum website could be worth a try as well.
Best of luck.
