Footnote: The Royal Hamilton Light Infantry (Wentworth Regiment) (RHLI) is a Primary Reserve infantry regiment of the Canadian Army, based at John Weir Foote VC Armoury in Hamilton, Ontario. The RHLI is part of 31 Canadian Brigade Group, which is part of 4th Canadian Division.
The Royal Hamilton Light Infantry originated in Hamilton, Ontario on December 11, 1862 as the 13th Battalion Volunteer Militia (Infantry), Canada. It was re-designated as the 13th Regiment on May 8, 1900; as the 13th "Royal Regiment" on January 3, 1910; and as the Royal Hamilton Regiment on May 1, 1920. It was organized as a four battalion regiment with the 1st Battalion (perpetuating the 13th Battalion (Royal Highlanders of Canada), CEF) on the Non Permanent Active Militia order of battle, and the 2nd Battalion (perpetuating the 86th Battalion (Machine Gun), CEF), 3rd Battalion (perpetuating the 120th Battalion (City of Hamilton) CEF), and 4th Battalion (perpetuating the 205th Battalion (Hamilton), CEF)) on the Reserve order of battle. On June 15, 1926, the 1st Battalion was re-designated the 1st Battalion (perpetuating the 4th Battalion (Central Ontario), CEF). The regiment was re-designated as the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry on March 15, 1927.
The reserve units were disbanded on December 14, 1936, on December 15, 1936, it amalgamated with the headquarters and three companies of the Wentworth Regiment and was re-designated as the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry (Wentworth Regiment). It was re-designated as the 2nd (Reserve) Battalion, the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry (Wentworth Regiment) on November 7, 1940 and as the Royal Hamilton Light Infantry (Wentworth Regiment) on December 31, 1945.
On May 4, 1951, the regiment mobilized two temporary Active Force companies designated "E" and "F" Company. "E" Company was reduced to nil strength upon its personnel being incorporated into the 1st Canadian Rifle Battalion (later the 1st Battalion, the Queen's Own Rifles of Canada) for service in Germany with NATO. It was disbanded on July 29, 1953. "F" Company was initially used as a reinforcement pool for "E" Company. On May 15, 1952, it was reduced to nil strength, upon its personnel being absorbed by the newly formed 2nd Canadian Rifle Battalion (later the 2nd Battalion, the Queen's Own Rifles of Canada) for service with the United Nations in Korea.
