Infantry Battalions in the Second World War

By 1939, there were three types of infantry regiments in the Canadian forces - rifle, tank and machine gun. Tank regiments converted to armour during the war and became part of the Canadian Armoured Corps. Some Machine Gun regiments mobilized rifle battalions (which did not add the M.G. designation to their title). Some infantry regiments were also converted to armour during the war.

On 2 September 1942, the Canadian Infantry Corps was formed, primarily as an administrative entity to train and hold reinforcements for its component regiments.

Most regiments mobilized more than one battalion during the course of the war. In 1939-40, these battalions were raised for the field force known as the Canadian Active Service Force. In 1940, the structure of Canada's military was changed, with the CASF being redesignated. A full explanation is given in the article on the Canadian Army.
