1st Armoured Division (Canada)

The 1st Armoured Division of Canada was a major military formation established during World War II, primarily responsible for armored warfare tactics involving tanks and mechanized units. It was formed to provide Canada with a strong armored force capable of engaging in large-scale land battles, especially in Europe. The division trained extensively and participated in key campaigns, contributing significantly to Allied efforts. After the war, it was reorganized or disbanded, but it played a crucial role in developing Canada's armored warfare capabilities and modern military practices.
