Plans are getting underway to mark the role played by the Hastings Prince Edward Regiment in World War Two.
The Hasty Ps were part of the Invasion of Sicily, Code Named Operation Husky, in which the allies took Sicily and fought up through the Italian Peninsula, one year before D-Day in France.
Acting Commanding Officer Major Roy Vandenburg appeared at city council this week.
Vandenburg says plans are underway, but not yet completed, for a 100 Mile March in this area, on July 8 and July 9, to commemorate the hundreds of miles the soldiers have marched.
Vandenburg, Honorary Lieutenant Colonel Lee-Anne Quinn, and Chief Warrant Officer Dean Stokes presented a 1917 photograph of the 254 Battalion Infantry to the city.
It is the only recorded picture of the 254 Battalion Infantry, in front of Belleville Armouries.
It is in the war diaries and archives of the Hastings Prince Edward Regimental Museum.
The 254 Battalion amalgamated with the Hastings Prince Edward Regiment when it was formed in the 1920s.
