Canada ran a secret agent training school on the shores of Lake Ontario. Now there's an escape room about it - inside our museum

Camp X and Spy Master, both by Improbable Escapes , are running here at the C&E Museum. You're working the puzzles surrounded by the real radios, radar sets and cipher gear this kind of work actually depended on.

95 Craftsman Blvd, Kingston. Booking link in bio.

August 15 marks Victory over Japan Day - the end of the Second World War.

By 1945, Canada was preparing for the Pacific. Among the units raised was No. 1 Canadian Special Wireless Group, a Royal Canadian Corps of Signals formation trained in signals intelligence, intercepting enemy wireless traffic.

That year it deployed to Australia, first to Brisbane and then Darwin, alongside Australian and American forces. Demanding, invisible work in punishing heat, far from home.

Two members of 1 CSWG died while serving in Australia.

Signalman Dermott Joseph Green is buried at Woombye War Cemetery, Queensland.

Lieutenant John David Miller is buried at Adelaide River War Cemetery, Northern Territory. His grave went unvisited for over fifty years, until Canadians deployed to Darwin found it in 1999.

This VJ Day, we remember 1 CSWG and the two Signallers who never came home.

Lest we forget. 🇨🇦

Le 15 août marque le jour de la Victoire sur le Japon — la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.

En 1945, le Canada se préparait pour le Pacifique. Parmi les unités constituées figurait le No. 1 Canadian Special Wireless Group, une formation du Corps des transmissions royal du Canada spécialisée dans le renseignement électromagnétique, l'interception des communications ennemies.

Cette année-là, il fut déployé en Australie, d'abord à Brisbane puis à Darwin, aux côtés des forces australiennes et américaines. Un travail exigeant et invisible, sous une chaleur accablante, loin de chez eux.

Deux membres du 1 CSWG sont morts alors qu'ils servaient en Australie.

Le signaleur Dermott Joseph Green est inhumé au cimetière militaire de Woombye, au Queensland.

Le lieutenant John David Miller est inhumé au cimetière militaire d'Adelaide River, dans le Territoire du Nord. Sa tombe est demeurée sans visite pendant plus de cinquante ans, jusqu'à ce que des Canadiens déployés à Darwin la découvrent en 1999.

En ce jour de la Victoire sur le Japon, nous nous souvenons du 1 CSWG et des deux signaleurs qui ne sont jamais rentrés au pays.

N'oublions jamais. 🇨🇦
