Cap Badge - 11th Battalion, (Saskatchewan Regiment), CEF (Canadian Expeditionary Force), The 11th Battalion, CEF was authorized on 10 August 1914 and embarked for Great Britain on 30 September 1914. The Battalion recruited in Prince Albert, Moose Jaw, Regina and Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and Winnipeg, Manitoba and mobilized at Camp Valcartier, Quebec. It was redesignated as the 11th Reserve Infantry Battalion, CEF, on 29 April 1915, to provide reinforcements to the Canadian Corps in the field. On 4 January 1917, its personnel, along with the personnel of the 100th Battalion (Winnipeg Grenadiers), CEF, were absorbed by a new 11th Reserve Battalion, CEF. The 11th Reserve Battalion formed part of the Canadian Training Depot at Tidworth Barracks on the Salisbury Plain. The battalion was disbanded on 12 October 1917. The Battalion was awarded the battle honour "THE GREAT WAR 1914-17". The 11th Battalion, CEF, is perpetuated by the The Winnipeg Grenadiers, currently on the Supplementary Order of Battle.
