The Military District system ended in 1948.
The four Land Force Areas came into being 1 September 1991.
(If I‘m wrong on that, please correct me!)
What came in between?
I know that I served in Southern Alberta Militia District of Prairie Militia Area in 1988 when I did my basic. According to DEFENCE 1976 there were 21 districts in 5 areas.
I know that SAMD and NAMD were amalgamated at some point to create ALBERTA MILITIA DISTRICT. Can anyone tell me when?
And what were the 5 areas and 21 districts?
I recall Prairie Militia Area, which has Southern Alberta Militia District and Northern Alberta Militia District. I seem to recall that the Lake Sups were part of our Area but can‘t remember their district name. Lakehead?
Pacific Militia Area rings a bell also. What were the other three? (Atlantic, Central, Quebec?)
ISTR a Saskatchewan Militia District also?
