Canadian Queen’s Own Rifles QOR Army of Occupation Germany 1952 Calendar

This item is a 1952 wall calendar issued for members of the Canadian Queen’s Own Rifles (QOR) stationed with the Army of Occupation in Germany. Following the end of the Second World War, Canadian military units, including the QOR, participated in Allied occupation duties in Germany. The calendar features period-correct illustrations and text, providing functional monthly pages for the year 1952. Markings typically include unit identifiers, regimental crests, or other military insignia relevant to the Queen’s Own Rifles and their deployment. Such calendars served both as practical organizational tools and as unit memorabilia, reflecting the daily life and administrative routines of Canadian forces abroad during the postwar occupation era. The calendar offers historical insight into Canada’s postwar military presence in Europe and the experience of its soldiers during a significant period in both Canadian and international military history. Condition and completeness may vary according to age and past handling.
