Special offer from the publisher of Legion Magazine
Hockey seeps into virtually every aspect of Canadian life. The military and its heritage are no exceptions. The game and the country's armed forces have been tied since Canada's earliest days, from one of the first games on record in 1886 to the droves of players, pro and amateur, who volunteered for the Great War. Still more exchanged hockey sweater for military uniform in the Second World War, and the pursuit of pucks has been a welcome distraction for those in service all along.
