Guest Darrell Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Today I had a chance to visit (for the first time - believe that one ) the Calgary Museum of the Regiments. Some great stuff that is devoted to all the Regiments and Divisions that have fought out of Western Canada.I took many pictures (some turned out decent - others not) and I hope you enjoy these. I was primarily interested in the Medal Groupings they had on display, so I appologize to all that have visited and they will say there is a ton of stuff to see. I was in a hurry and only briefly glanced through the place in an hour and a half. You could easily spend a whole day browsing through the displays.All the pictures have been taken with my rudimentry photo skills and almost all displays were behind glass enclosures, which made it difficult to prevent the dreaded flash reflection.
