FOUNDATIONS OF THE 72nd REGT, 1910-1914

Fondations du 72e régiment, 1910-1914

Sgt Douglas McNaught Johnstone, pre 1914

Sergeant Douglas McNaught Johnstone, 72nd Regiment Seaforth Highlanders of Canada, Seaforth Regimental No. 43 in full scarlets with feather bonnet and swagger stick on 13 November, 1910. NOTE: On November 24, 1910, Authorization was obtained for the formation of a Highland Regiment in Vancouver. On Rear: "MJR D.M. JOHNSTONE / CADETS / FRONT". [INCORRECT] From the Regimental Association Newsletter May 1976 for more details (attached). "The smartly turned-out Seaforth on the front page? Who but Colour Sergeant Doug Johnstone, Regimental No. 43? At the time the photograph was taken. Which was Sunday, Nov. 13, 1910? Elsewhere in this issue a recent press account reveals what he has been up to since then. An outstanding Seaforth, and the vary epitome of what a soldier should be. Congratulations Doug on your ninetieth."
