103rd Regiment (Calgary Rifles)

The unit initially paraded at the former Calgary General Hospital building (today known as the Rundle Ruins) before being ordered to vacate in September 1910.

The unit then moved into the former drill hall of the Canadian Mounted Rifles on Centre Street and 12th Avenue SE.

In 1911 a new armoury was found, in a former German-Canadian club a block south of their former home at the General Hospital.

The regiment also supplied soldiers to man internment camps near Castle Mountain and Cave & Basin in Banff National Park.

These regiments perpetuate the 10th, 31st, 50th, 56th, 82nd, 89th and 137th Battalions of the Canadian Expeditionary Force all of whom were either raised in, or contained soldiers from, Calgary.
