Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry

also referred to as the Patricia’s, Picklies, VP, Dirty Patricias

Thomas George Prince MM (October 25, 1915 – November 25, 1977) was an Indigenous Canadian war hero and Canada’s most decorated First Nations soldier.



History

“Close with and Destroy the Enemy with maximum speed and aggression”

Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry was founded by an act of philanthropy as a result of the acceptance of the offer of Captain Andrew Hamilton Gault, a Montreal entrepreneur, on the 3rd of August 1914 to provide $100,000 to raise and equip a battalion for overseas service. PPCLI has served Canada and Canadians continuously since its founding in Ottawa on 10 August 1914. Since then more than 1,850 Patricia’s have fallen in the service of Canada, in her wars, in peacekeeping and peace support operations in Canada and elsewhere. In addition, many thousands of other members of the Regiment have been wounded or injured through their service of Canada.
