Norman McLeod Craig was a nineteen-year-old medical student at Queen's when he attested to the Canadian Expeditionary Force in March 1915, served in Egypt with the Royal Army Medical Corps, and finished the war as a flight commander in the Royal Naval Air Service. In 1932, out of patience with a Fergus town council that had deferred a war memorial for seventeen years, he wrote a war play and staged it himself in June 1933 with a local cast, at least seventy-five percent of gross receipts going to the memorial fund. His grandson, a Hollywood writer and director, prints the text and music here for the first time, with Craig's attestation papers, wartime photographs, the newspaper advertisements, and the program for the 1935 Dawn Parade that finally unveiled the monument.
