Description: Lieutenant-Colonel William D. Otter became the first Canadian-born officer to command this country's military. As commanding officer of the 2nd Battalion, Royal Canadian Regiment of Infantry in South Africa, his no nonsense, no frills approach to soldiering brought him into conflict with the less disciplined ways of his officers and men, but his austere professionalism got results.

Description: In 1917-18 the British air force directed an ambitious flying training operation in Canada.

This online article has information about the training program and includes a bibliography.
