Footnote: The 48 Highlanders contributed individual volunteers for the Canadian Contingents to South Africa, mainly the 2nd (Special Service) Battalion, Royal Canadian Regiment of Infantry. During the Great War, the 15th Battalion, CEF, was authorized on September 1, 1914 and embarked for Britain on September 26, 1914 and arrived in France on February 15, 1915. The Battalion fought as part of the 3rd Infantry Brigade, 1st Canadian Division in France and Flanders throughout the war. The 15th Battalion was disbanded on August 30, 1920. The 92nd Battalion (48th Highlanders), CEF was authorized on July 30, 1915 and embarked for Britain on May 20, 1916, where the battalion provided reinforcements to the Canadian Corps in the field until January 24, 1917, when its personnel were absorbed by the 5th Reserve Battalion, CEF before being disbanded on September 1, 1917. The 134th Battalion was authorized on December 22, 1915 and embarked for Britain on August 8, 1916, where it provided reinforcements to the Canadian Corps in the field until March 7, 1918, when its personnel were absorbed by the 12th Reserve Battalion, CEF. The battalion was then disbanded on November 29, 1918. During the Second World War, the regiment mobilized the 48th Highlanders of Canada, CASF, on September 1, 1939. It was subsequently re-designated the 1st Battalion, 48th Highlanders of Canada, CASF, on November 7, 1940. It departed Canada for Britain on December 16, 1939, and on June 13, 1940 it went to France as part of the abortive Second British Expeditionary Force. The Battalion reached Sablé-sur-Sarthe before being ordered back to Britain. It landed in Sicily on July 10, 1943 and in Italy on September 3, 1943 as part of the 1st Infantry Brigade, 1st Canadian Infantry Division. In March 1945, the regiment moved with the remainder of the I Canadian Corps to North West Europe, where it fought until the end of the war. The overseas battalion was disbanded on December 31, 1945. On June 1, 1945, a second battalion of the regiment was mobilized for service in the Pacific theatre of operations, designated as the 3rd Canadian Infantry Battalion (48th Highlanders of Canada), CASF. This battalion was disbanded on November 1, 1945. The 48th Highlanders of Canada perpetuate the 15th Battalion (48th Highlanders of Canada), CEF, the 92nd Battalion (48th Highlanders), CEF, and the 134th Battalion (48th Highlanders), CEF.
