    On behalf of all former members of the Canadian Provost Corps (1940-1968) I wish to pass on our sincere sympathies to the family of Mrs Katie Stewart. Her war time service as a lieutenant in the Canadian Provost Corps (the former service police of the Canadian Army) makes her a pioneer in female military police officers in this Country. The motto of the Canadian Provost Corps was “Discipline By Example”, one that she would have endeared herself to live up to in setting an example for all other Army personnel to follow. The role of maintaining discipline within an Army is a very important one, especially during war, and one that would have been yet more challenging for the female members of the C Pro C. Her name will be added to the Canadian Provost Corps “Roll Of Honour” on our Association web site at;
    http://canadianprovostcorps.ca/ May She Rest In Peace
