MD 7 - Maritime Provinces

[mike mckinley]

hi jason..long time, no see


md7stood for military district 7. the rub is that i'm not sure exactly what was covered, be it southern n.b., the whole province, or perhaps the whole atlantic region including n.s., and p.e.i., but excluding nfld, as it wasn't part of canada at that time. what i can tell you is that saint john was in md7 as noted on the first world war discharge papers of my great uncle. i checked my wifes' grand fathers' attestation papers as he joined the 2nd batt carleton & york regt at fredericton, but the md was not listed on the document. cheers!!
