Afghanistan
CF units were required to contribute an aggregate of more than 20% of authorized strength to the various Task Forces which served in Afghanistan between 2002 and 2014 to qualify for a Battle Honour.[6] The regiment contributed over 100% of its strength, and was awarded the Canadian Forces' Unit Commendation for this achievement.[7][8]
I remember we also sent a #### tonne of soldiers through Yugo as well.
