QOCHC, the raid on Dieppe, France, 19 August 1942

Dieppe Raid WW2 Commemoration

The Queen’s Own Cameron Highlanders of Canada and the Cameron Association in Canada will be holding a brief service commemorating the Dieppe Raid, August 19th, 1942, at Vimy Ridge Memorial Park on Thursday, 18 August, 2022.

Timings: 2000 for 2030 hrs (aka 8 for 8:30 pm). We ask that all spectators arrive No Later Than 2020 hrs / 8:20 pm so as to find a good spot.

Dress: Regiment is in DEU 1A, so medals up for those who have them if you’re so inclined. Ideally, show up in a Cameron blazer or similar kit, but we’d rather have you there than skipping it if your “tux” is at the cleaners.

Special Admin: Chairs will not be provided, so if you have difficulties standing for about 45 minutes you may want to make suitable arrangements.
