Canadians and Americans have a long history of military cooperation. During the War of 1812, Canadian militiamen fought alongside American soldiers against the British. In the American Civil War, thousands of Canadians volunteered to fight for the Union Army. And in both World Wars, Canadian and American forces fought side-by-side against the Axis powers.
This book tells the story of the many Canadians who served in the American military and the Americans who served in the Canadian military. It is a story of courage, friendship, and sacrifice, and it is a reminder of the close relationship between our two countries.
Canadians in the American Military
The first Canadians to serve in the American military were a group of fur traders who joined the Continental Army during the American Revolution. These men were known as the "Canadian Volunteers," and they fought in several battles, including the Battle of Saratoga.
During the War of 1812, Canadian militiamen played a major role in defending the United States against British invasion. Canadian forces fought in several battles, including the Battle of Queenston Heights and the Battle of York.
In the American Civil War, thousands of Canadians volunteered to fight for the Union Army. These men were motivated by a variety of factors, including their belief in the Union cause, their desire to fight for freedom, and their economic opportunity. Canadian soldiers fought in many of the major battles of the war, including the Battle of Gettysburg and the Battle of Antietam.
In the First World War, Canadian and American forces fought side-by-side against the Central Powers. Canadian troops played a major role in the Battle of the Somme and the Battle of Vimy Ridge. Canadian and American soldiers also fought together in the Second World War, and Canadian troops played a major role in the Normandy landings and the Battle of the Bulge.
