  • Home of Canada'a premier Reserve infantry regiment: The Calgary Highlanders.
  • and 14th service Bat
  • 14 Svc Bn hasn't been stationed at Mewata for years. Mewata is home of the CalHighs and the Kings Own Calgary Regiment, both originated from the 103rd Calgary Rifles in 1910. The CalHighs are infantry, and the KOCalgR are Armoured Recconaisance. What's the difference? In the CalHighs, you carry your kit. In the KOCalgR, your kit carries you!
