West Nova Scotia Regiment War Diary
The World War II War Diary from the West NS Regt has been reproduced here in electronic format. Steps have been taken to make the documents searchable and copy/paste friendly, however not all text has been correctly captured. This is especially true of the handwritten entries or where the copy quality was low. Maps and ancillary notes are missing at this time.
You may also download a zip of all War Diary entries for local reading. (97Mb) Semper Fidelis
