The series consists of records relating to Gregory Clark's involvement in the two World Wars as an army officer in the First World War and a war correspondent in the Second World War. It holds his map and field message book from the Battle of Vimy Ridge, April 1917, and his letter home to his father on the eve of the battle. For the Second World War, the series includes his war correspondent licence, regulations for press representatives with the Canadian Army, handbook for war correspondents with the Canadian Army in the field, notebooks (mostly just the names and address of contacts), cables, and memorabilia. There is also a newspaper clipping of his 30 September 1943 article describing atrocities committed by fleeing Axis soldiers in the Italian village of Rionero.
