BSA Canadian Cadet Martini Markings

[BlackPowderBurner]

A couple years ago there was a web page that showed every known Canadian cadet corps unit by number with their corresponding name and location. It seems that site is now defunct so I'd like to see if anyone might have access to that information?

Hi BPB. Apparently that web sight was hacked and all the information compromised. Damn shame. I, too, would like access to
Cadet Corps markings. Its a part of Canadian history worth restoring. JOHN

Hi BPB, I have a copy of it from the wayback machine website.

If you want I can look it up or you can go to the site yourself.

As I recall, and it could be wrong, the site was on such an old system that the current internet no longer was able to "read" it. Or something along those lines - I'm also old.

I couldn't agree more with jtaylor, it is an invaluable site for research on Canadian history. I was able to identify all four Cadet Corps that owned my Ross Cadet rifle.

Thank you, I was able to find it archived. Turns out my BSA Martini was issued in Lethbridge. It's a shame the web capture didn't grab many of the images. For those interested:
