The 2nd/10th Dragoons was a component of the 1st Cavalry Brigade of the Non-Permanent Active Militia in Military District No. 2 and remained a ‘Horsed’ Cavalry Regiment of the Non-Permanent Active Militia and later Canadian Army (Reserve)(from 7 November 1940) until converted and re-designated the 57th Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment (2nd/10th Dragoons), R.C.A. (Canadian Army (Reserve)), effective 1 April 1946.

The ‘Active’ component of the regiment was called out and placed on active service as serial 1077 - 2nd/10th Dragoons effective 12 May 1942 and was re-designated and allocated to the Canadian Infantry Corps as serial 1077 - 1st Battalion, 2nd/10th Dragoons, C.I.C. effective 3 September 1942 and was disbanded effective 10 November 1943.

I hope this helps.

Cheers

I see that Mark is responding in his usual vague style.
