Resources

Canada's military records are held by National Archives. Saskatchewan Servicemen may have some records held at the Regina office of the Provincial Archives. Going to the archive office and looking through the historical records of the Department of Public Works will show some WWI Expeditionary Force rolls which are listed by Battalion. Fatalities of WW1 and WWII are held in an alphabetical listing. Collections are listed by organization at an archive...Biographical information may be available from the historical documents of Regina Rifles Regiment, Royal Canadian Legion, British Empire Service League, or the Saskatchewan Provincial Command. Provincial Archives have limited research services available, it is best to pop down in person if possible.



There are many, many military resources on the internet, search by battalion, uniform, specific war, country etc. Each site will provide more links, to help the search become more specific and narrow down the number of sites provided.
