[Bill A]

An official Canadian Army photo of two officers returning from Kiska in the Aluetian Islands. The 13 Canadian Infantry Brigade was part of the Canadian element in the operation to remove the Japanese threat from the northwest Pacific. These officers appear to be wearing the two different types of Kiska patches, the printed version on the officer on the left (Capt R.D. Chaneman) and the embroidered pattern on the officer on the right.
