Pembroke Legion Branch 72

The Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 72 Museum in Pembroke holds a wealth of information. 

 

 There are more than 30 sets of medals, uniforms and their accoutrements, insignia, equipment, numerous photographs, various newspapers (and clippings), publications, maps, and many other acquisitions too numerous to mention.
