History of the 1226 Fort Garry Horse Cadet Corps
The 1226 Fort Garry Horse Cadet Corps from Winnipeg, Manitoba was formed 18 June 1925 under the sponsorship of the Fort Garry Horse.

On 18 April 1942 an application to form No. 1226 "B" Sqn, Fort Garry Horse Cadet Corps (to be sponsored by No.1226 FGHCC) was raised and
the application held in abeyance until September 1942. No records indicate if this was ever actioned. In May 1943, in view of the fact that the Fort Garry Horse was now designated the 15th Reconnaissance Regt., 2nd Armoured Car Regt.
