Canada. Canadian Armed Forces. Prairie Militia Area. Headquarters : In 1946 Prairie Command was formed from Military Districts No. 10 and 12 in order to coordinate both Regular and Militia (Active and Reserve as they were then known) units in the area. A major reorganization of the Primary Reserve (Militia) took place on 1 September 1970, leaving the reserves organized into five geographic groupings under the command of Mobile Command. These groupings were the Militia Area Atlantic, Militia Area Eastern, Militia Area Central, Militia Area Prairie and Militia Area Pacific. The mandate of the Prairie Militia Area called on them to provide operationally ready Militia forces to support the Regular Force. The Prairie Militia Area comprised the provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and units at Thunder Bay and Kenora, with its headquarters in Winnipeg. Militia Area Prairie Command was comprised of separate districts formed by geographic location: Winnipeg District, Saskatchewan District, Edmonton District, Southern Alberta District and Independent Units. Prairie Militia Area Headquarters was disbanded December 1991 with the reorganization and formation of Land Force Western Area. General inventory
