    Certainly! A lot of this is old knowledge that’s been rattling around in my head from old books and lessons I’ve taken.

    To start here’s a wiki link to summarize the Crucified Soldier.

    Here’s a link to an article by The National discussinf Canadian and German relations leading to Canadian brutality.

    As well a short wiki article talking about trench raiding, namely referencing a book about Canadians in the bibliography section.

    Alrernatively, here’s a link from the Canadian Legion talking about Canada developing night raiding as a tactic on the modern battlefield.

    I could probably dredge up some other information if you’d like but I think these are a nice starting point. From there it should be easy to make your own searches or narrow down your interests. I hope this helps.

      Wow! Thank you so much for this.

      I saw your answer awhile ago but left it unread until I could read the links… then promptly forgot until now.

      Fascinating stuff! Much appreciated!

        No worries mate! Canadian wartime history is a very interesting one. It’s actually surprising how much stories and actions like those above lead to Canadian Sovereignty. The distaste for war, slaughter and bloodshed is basically what lead to Canada declaring war, on its own, with Canadian officers at the helm during ww2.
