I'd love it if someone could fill in the summaries of the individual regiments. I'll do a few if I can find the info, but I'm sure there are folks out there who know more about the subject than I do.
Greetings:
A warm thank you to all who began and contributed to the development of the Royal Regiment of Canadian Artillery in Wikipedia. Let's keep this up!

"On 20 October 1871, the Royal Canadian Artillery formed the first regular Canadian army units when they created two batteries of garrison artillery; thus, that date is considered the regiment's birthday."
When listing the order of precedence on parade, it should be done by formations and units in accordance with A-AD-200-000/AG-000 The Honours, Flags and Heritage Structure of the Canadian Forces, 1999 para 18. Personnel branches (such as Naval Operations Branch) are a different concept altogether and do not come into play for parade precedence. (One can view this manual online at http://142.59.159.170/pams/cfp200.pdf)
The order or precedence for the commands and major elements of the CF is:
a. officer cadets of the Royal Military College when parading as a unit or detachment representing their college;
b. National Defence Headquarters (NDHQ);
c. Maritime Command;
d. Land Force Command;
e. Air Command;
f. CF Northern Area;
g. CF Recruiting and Education Training System, when not formed as a subordinate formation of the Assistant Deputy Minister (Human Resources - Military) Group as part of a single NDHQ element.

Is the RCA BAttle School still in Shilo? If so, should it be included? Motorfix 19:32, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
I'm just pointing out for further clarification that the School in Gagetown is officially known as the "Field Artillery School". What happened was that in the '90s when the FAS and ADAS merged the term "Royal Canadian Artillery School" was adopted. However, no one set forth the amendment to the CFOO. In '03 the Armoured School put forth an amendment to the CFOO to have RCAS stand for "Royal Canadian Armoured School", as they had been using that acronym for a few years. In '05, we at the school were directed to cease using RCAS and don the moniker of FAS, much to the chagrin of the Air Defenders and Locators.
Greetings all! I noticed that all of the batteries have been labeled as "th", which to my understanding is incorrect. The number of the Battery is simply used. EG) Five Four Battery as opposed to 54th Battery or The Five Four Battery of the Fifty Sixth Field Regiment (ETC)
I could certainly be wrong about this, but thought I'd throw it in... 69.156.155.90 ( talk) 22:10, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
It depends. "64th Field Battery" in long form, but 64 FD BTY in abbreviated form. So the "th" is dropped in the short form. http://canadianartillery.ca/download/12551/ Jabrwock ( talk) 17:44, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
It appears that the 39th Field Battery Royal Canadian Artillery from Lethbridge Alberta is missing, or in the Independent Batteries section is mislabeled as 20th see http://digitallibrary.uleth.ca/cdm/ref/collection/lhs/id/2176 107.77.195.183 ( talk) 22:48, 13 November 2017 (UTC) Greg Boudreau
