Valcartier camp: 97 years later

CFB Valcartier training procedure

CFB Valcartier 2011

    After nearly a century of development, the massive, quickly built Valcartier camp has transformed from a sea of white tents into the CFB (Canadian Forces Base) Valcartier.
    Valcartier camp was originally built in a matter of weeks under the supervision of Sam Hughes to train the thousands of new canadian recruits that were pouring in at the start of WW1.
    Now it remains an essential military base for Quebec and Canada both for it's present actions and it's historical significance throughout the 19th century.
