Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: A memorial plaque for the Canadian efforts in the Dieppe Raid. The plaque reads: On August 19, 1942, six thousand Allied troops embarked on 250 vessels from Southern England on a daylight raid on the German occupied French resort town of Dieppe. Almost 5000 of these soldiers were young Canadian men. Of the Canadians who embarked on the raid, almost 4000 were killed, wounded or taken prisoner. Of the 1000 soldiers who returned to England, 600 of them were wounded. On January 11, 1943, East York Township Council renamed this site Dieppe Park. This plaque is a permanent memorial to honour the brave soldiers who fought and died for our country. |
