La collection des Archives publiques fut lentement transf�r�e au Mus�e canadien de la guerre, lequel rouvrit ses portes en 1942, des dizaines d'ann�es apr�s sa fermeture � la fin du XIXe si�cle. Le gros de l'actuelle collection du Mus�e de canons, mortiers, mitrailleuses et petites armes ennemis de la Premi�re Guerre mondiale provient du programme officiel de troph�es de guerre.

The Public Archives collection was slowly transferred to the Canadian War Museum, which reopened in 1942, decades after it had closed in the late nineteenth century. Most of the Museum's current collection of First World War enemy guns, mortars, machine-guns, and small-arms comes from the official war trophy program. Smaller collections also survive in military and civil museums across Canada, and on official memorials or in civic buildings.

��Blighty�� signifiait donc � la fois la ��patrie�� ou le ��pays�� et, pour les soldats en campagne, �tait une r�f�rence d'humour noir � des blessures non mortelles qui leur permettraient de passer du temps loin du front. Le mot lui-m�me est une version anglicis�e du mot hindi pour ��pays natal�� adopt� par les troupes britanniques en Inde au XIXe si�cle.

Soldiers say goodbye to wounded comrades leaving a casualty clearing station. The wounded are on the way to England for further treatment and convalescence. British, Canadian, and other Commonwealth soldiers described England as "Blighty," and also used it to indicate the non-fatal wound that would take you there. "Blighty" was therefore both "homeland" or "country" and, for soldiers in the field, a darkly humorous reference to non-fatal wounds leading to time spent far from the front. The word itself is an Anglicized version of the Hindi for "native land," adopted by British troops in India in the nineteenth century.

De nombreux Birmans, exaspérés par la mainmise de la Grande-Bretagne sur leur pays depuis le XIXe siècle, coopérèrent avec les Japonais lors de l'invasion de leur pays en décembre 1941. Les Japonais voyaient la Birmanie comme un tremplin vers l'Inde ainsi qu'un lieu de retranchement pour leurs troupes qui combattaient dans la péninsule malaise et à Singapour.

Many Burmese, resenting Britain's hold over their country which went all the way back to the nineteenth century, cooperated when the Japanese invaded in December 1941. The Japanese saw Burma as a stepping-stone to India as well as protection for their troops fighting in the Malayan peninsula and in Singapore. At little cost, by May 1942 they had driven the British Indian troops west into India. The Japanese occupation of Burma cut the Burma Road from Mandalay in north central Burma to China; the Americans had been using that route to supply Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist forces, engaged in their own war against Japan ( see War in China, 1937-1945 ).

Ce n'est pas beaucoup, mais cela suffit à convaincre Cronje que sa position est intenable. Plus tard, ce matin là, il se rend. Voir la carte indiquant la zone du laager du Général Pieter Arnoldus Cronje et la position de la XIXe Brigade au matin du 27 février 1900)

Day by day, the British tightened their cordon around the Boer position until conditions seemed right to force a Boer surrender. On the night of 26-27 February, the Canadians were in the lead of a British attempt to seize a section of the Boer trenches by a surprise attack. At 2:00 a.m. on 27 February, the Canadians cautiously advanced in two ranks towards the Boer lines less than half a kilometre away. They had nearly reached the enemy trenches when they ran into a trip-wire and came under heavy rifle fire. The front rank returned the Boer fire while their comrades began to hack trenches out of the hard-baked earth. Suddenly, someone called out "Retire". Men began to drop back, confusion set in, and most of the battalion returned to the start line. Only "G" and "H" Companies from the Maritimes held firm and poured fire into the Boer positions. It was not much, but it was enough to convince Cronje that his position was untenable. He surrendered later that morning. (See map showing the Area of General Pieter Arnoldus Cronje's Laager and the position of the XIX Brigade on 27 February 1900 when General Cronje's forces surrendered)
