The 59th (Newfoundland) Heavy Regiment in the Second World War

Newfoundland and Labrador’s role in the First World War has been rightly celebrated – but what about the Second World War?

Join Ian Kelly, member of the Royal Newfoundland Regimental Advisory Council, as he recounts the lesser-known story of the Fighting 59th – an artillery regiment from the Dominion of Newfoundland that fought in the Second World War.

This program examines the role of the Fighting 59th in the defence of England, the liberation of France, Belgium, and Holland, and the defeat of Nazi Germany.

This is a free program but a ticket is required. Reserve your tickets online or by calling (709) 757-8090.
