The Ottawa Military History Club is an Eastern Ontario group of Canadian historians and Canadian military history enthusiasts dedicated to the preservation and sharing of Canadian military history through public events, historical discussions, presentations, and artifact displays.

​

We are the only Legion in Ottawa, possibly Ontario and maybe even all of Canada doing something of this nature keeping Canadian Military History alive.

 

The group was initially named after the local historical 77th (Ottawa) Battalion, CEF, of the First World War. The focus of the group has expanded significantly, to include all aspects of Canadian military history.
