Baker's Dozen of Regiments That Made a Difference in Battle
1. The Royal Fusiliers at Mons Canal 1914
2. The Canadian Scottish Regiment (Princess Mary's) at 2nd Ypres
As part of 16th Battalion, the battle was the first time that a former colonial force (the 1st Canadian Division) defeated a major European power (the German Empire) on European soil, in the Battle of St. Julien-Kitcheners' Wood.
