1st Hussars Museum : In the autumn of 1946, some World War II veterans of the 1st Hussars gathered at the London Armories to form a regimental association in which former and serving members of the unit could meet together. With the prime object of "Good and Welfare", the Association has played an increasingly important role in maintaining the morale of both the Old Comrades and their Militia colleagues. It has also provided a continuing link between succeeding generations of the Regiment. In the early fifties, until its discontinuance in 1973, a Toronto branch of the Association existed, strongly supporting its London counterpart. Each year on a weekend close to June 6 members of the Association get together in London for a reunion, dance and time of remembering. This commemorative gathering, with members attending from all over Canada and parts of the USA, has grown over the years and even with diminishing ranks of veterans, now numbers in the hundreds, and will no doubt continue as long as Hussars survive.
