Cobourg During World War II

The Cobourg area was very active during World War II.  While many area residents served in all the different branches of Canada's military, Cobourg was well known as an artillery town - reflected in the articles and resources below.  These sources are primarily due to the work and recollections of Mary Corbett - born, raised, and lived in Cobourg her entire life, Mary was very interested and involved in local history.
