The Saskatchewan Border Regiment was a regiment based in southern Saskatchewan. In 1936 it was combined with the Weyburn Regiment to form the South Saskatchewan Regiment. The South Saskatchewan Regiment (old one), in 1924, was reorganized and split into various smaller regiments. The South Sasks were reformed in 1936.
Famous quotes containing the words border and/or regiment:
“I learn to affirm
Truth’s light at strange turns of the mind’s road,
wrong turns that lead
over the border into wonder....”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“We had an inspection today of the brigade. The Twenty-third was pronounced the crack regiment in appearance, ... [but] I could see only six to ten in a company of the old men. They all smiled as I rode by. But as I passed away I couldn’t help dropping a few natural tears. I felt as I did when I saw them mustered in at Camp Chase.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
