In February of 1918 the 156^th Battalion C.E.F. was disbanded due to the need of reinforcements along the Western Front. Members of the 156^th were sent to several regiments. To tell the story of the soldiers of the 156^th we will follow the events of three battalions from Eastern Ontario. The 2^nd Battalion CEF (Eastern Ontario Regiment) perpetuated by the Governor General’s Footguards (Ottawa), 21^st Battalion CEF perpetuated by the Prince of Whales on Regiment (Kingston) and the 28^th Battalion CEF, perpetuated by the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa (Ottawa).
