On August 19, 2017 the 75th anniversary of the Dieppe Raid will undoubtedly be recalled in many ways. A good deal of material about the raid can be found on this website - and in many many books and reports.

A few weeks after the Dieppe Raid occurred, lengthy reports appeared in newspapers, at home and abroad. An official statement was released by Canadian Defence Minister Ralston on September 18, 1942. It appears below in three parts, as found in The Hamilton Spectator and Toronto's The Globe and Mail:

Part 1: Only "Highest Standard" Troops at Dieppe (1)

Part 2: Only "Highest Standard" Troops at Dieppe (2)

Part 3: Only "Highest Standard" Troops at Dieppe (3)
