The Military Museums in Calgary, Alberta is Western Canada's only
tri-service museum and military education centre. Containing the
regimental museums of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light
Infantry (PPCLI), Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians), The
King's Own Calgary Regiment, and the Calgary Highlanders along with
the Naval, Army, and Air Force Museums of Alberta, The Military
Museums welcome over 10 000 visitors each year. This is the story
of how The Military Museums came to be. From the unprecedented
coming together of individual regimental museums to form the Museum
of the Regiments to the extraordinary work of veterans and citizens
to create and maintain one of Calgary's principal cultural,
educational, and tourist sites, it is a story of perseverance,
cooperation, and community. With the mantra "Remember, Preserve,
and Educate," The Military Museums, Founders Gallery, and Military
Museums Libraries and Archives are dedicated to preserving the
memories and traditions of the countless Canadians who proudly
served their country through war and conflict. Treasuring the
Tradition: The Story of the Military Museums is a Special
Presentation of the University of Calgary Press
