World War I

Chérisy village, south-east of Arras, in the Pas-de-Calais, France, was captured by the 18th Division on 3 May 1917, but lost the same night. On 15 September 1917 a trench raid was carried out by british forces in the area.[5]

It then remained in German hands until it was retaken by the Canadian Corps on 27 August 1918. It was in the retaking of Chérisy that Major Georges Philias Vanier, the future GOC of the Royal 22e Régiment and Governor General of Canada (1959–1967) was wounded, as a result of which his leg was amputated. In addition to Vanier, GOC of the 26th Battalion, Lt-Col. A. E. G. McKenzie was killed during action on 28 August 1918.
