A groundbreaking exhibit created in partnership between The Military Museums in Calgary and Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame. Exploring the relationship between sports and military service, dating back to the First World War, over 180 artefacts across fourteen sports are represented. The personal stories of honoured members from the Hall of Fame that proudly served in multiple branches of the military are featured throughout. Programs such as Soldier On–which uniquely combines military service with athletics–is also highlighted.
