Indigenous War Heroes
Legion Magazine
Thousands of Indigenous people have served in all branches of the Canadian military, in both world wars and in other conflicts in distant lands. Some became decorated war heroes, receiving medals for valour and joining elite military units. Many paid the ultimate price. Those lucky enough to return home came back to a nation that still denied them equal rights.
Their service and sacrifice have gone largely unrecognized: from the deadliest sniper of the First World War to a reconnaissance sergeant in the infamous Devil’s Brigade, the exploits of these soldiers deserve to be heard. These are some of their stories.
