I‘m not sure I understand how the conferring, or not, of an order,
decoration or medal has any connection with knighthood. Pardon my
ignorance and for once I am not being sarcastic but does one have to
belong to a Britsh Order eg Order of the Thistle, Bath, etc in order
to be knighted? Certainly, membership in certain Orders does not confer
on one knighthood: consider the MBE given out relatively frequently. The
Beatles got one way back when and were not knighted at the time one or
two were subsequently..
Or have I missed something? Are knights/dames automatically members of
some Order that I am not aware of?
I think "knighthood" was allowed back into Canada for a short period in
the 1930s when Bennett was PM, but was again ended when the Natural
Governing Party yeah, right came back to power under W.L.M. King. I
don‘t recall reading that R.B. Bennett also included the creation of
Peers. But it‘s been a long time since I took Social Studies 30 or
Current Events, as my kids would say.
As far as the CF is concerned, I think the Privy Council ruling I was
going to use the term Privy Council "Order" but that‘s confusing
is a good idea as it prohibits acceptance by soldiers of a salad of
medals from every little two-bit nation around the world next thing you
know some of our troops would be lit up like Xmas trees.
Didja know that Canadians troops could receive the "overseas" bar to the
Canadian Volunteer Service Medal just for being stationed in Washington,
DC during WW2? I know one. Newfoundland too, but that was a little more
dangerous or hardship thereof or was it?.
Didja know that a Brit soldier, could receive the CVSM no overseas bar
without ever setting foot in Canada during the war and never having been
a Canadian? How? Well, for a short time in the mid 50s, if that former
Brit soldier had emegrated to Canada and joined Canadian Army etc he
could apply and receive the CVSM. I know one he also holds the MM: a
"real" medal for gallantry.
BTW, just cause I have the floor:

To be knighted is, in effect, to be promoted within an order to the "knight"
level. As you pointed out the Beatles were all made Members of the Order of
the British Empire MBE but recently Paul McCartney was elevated to the
Knight of the Order of the British Empire KBE thereby making him a "Sir".
We have in Canada two Orders - the Order of Canada and the Order of Military
Merit. Both of these Orders stop at Commander. If the Cdn Gov‘t wished to
institute a knighthood within Canada , and no longer worry about British
honours, they would merely have to introduce a "Knight" level to the
Orders.
BTW 1, In the British Public Service the common joke is that when you are
made Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George CMG you boasted
"Call Me God", when elevated to Knight Commander of the Order KCMG you
boasted "Keep Calling me God" and when elevated to Grand Knight Commander of
the Order GCMG you boasted God Calls Me God!
BYW2, Many years ago a British nobleman,well on in years, who was already a
Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath and Knight of the Order of the
Thistle was announced in the King‘s New Year‘s Honours List as a Knight of
the Order of the Bath. An acquaintance of his, on reading of the honour in
the London Tmes, cabled his congratulations as "Well done, three times a
night - at your age".
Belated introductions, My name is Clive Law, I served with the GGFG back in
the 70s. I subscribed to this several years ago but left when the level of
correspondence sank to mud-slinging. Back now to see what‘s new.

Clive, from Ian Edwards:
Thanks for your posting clarification.
Welcome back to the list. It‘s been a little slow in recent months,
perhaps that‘s better than being overwhelmed by "airborne mike" and some
teen with a foul mouth that we endured and/or drove many away a year or
more ago.
Let us know what new books you have in the works. You have written,
edited and or published a number of important books on militaria over
the past decade or more and I hope that you are continuing to contribute
such value to collectors and historians.Wow, that pat on the back will
cost you ten cents off my next purchase.

Hi Ian, still kicking I see. Thanks for the plug, as promised I‘ll drop a
Loonie into the mail-
In answer, I have recently published the following 2nd Edition of the
Canadian Militaria Directory Sourcebook with over 1,000 listings, A Source
of Pride which covers the design, use and approvals of CEF badges and Small
Arms Unit Marks which examines Brit and Cdn Regimental marks on small arms
1900-1930.
Future publications include A Question of Confidence - The Ross Rifle in the
Trenches, as well as books on WWII Cdn combat uniforms and another on
Pattern 1937 webbing. I will also be launching three new booklets on
vehicles. These are The Jeep in Canadian Service, The Sherman M4 in Canadian
Service and Kangaroos both unfrocked Priests and Rams. My own next book is
"Inglis Diamond" which will, over the course of 300 pages and 300 photos,
cover the entire story of the Cdn made Browning pistol and its use by
several countries during and after WW2. This will be published by Collector
Grade Publications.
Glad to see that the tone of the group is up a notch. I recognize some of
the names M. O‘Leary et al. I will be an active member of this group.
Clive
