Donovan Redknap Obituary, Death – When we found out that Donovan (Reg) Redknap had passed away on November 22nd, 2022, we were astounded and profoundly saddened by the news. At the Canadian War Museum, where he worked as a Volunteer Interpreter, everyone adored Reg. At that point, he had been working with us for over twenty years at that point. Reg joined the officer training program of the Canadian Army in 1951 and remained in that capacity for the subsequent three decades. In 1953, he was posted in Korea with the 81st Field Regiment after being appointed to that unit. His battery provided the 3rd Battalion of the Royal Canadian Regiment with direct aid during the Battle of Hill 187, which took place in May of 1953.
Before the armistice was signed in Korea, this was one of the most major battles that took place before the conflict ended. Anyone who is curious about this pivotal moment in the war and Reg’s involvement in it can go to Gallery 4 of the Museum to find out more information about it. After completing his service in Korea, Reg was stationed in a number of locations around Canada, including Fort Churchill, as well as in Germany, Cyprus, and Kashmir. To his position as a Volunteer Interpreter at the Canadian Military Museum, Reg devoted a great deal of his time and energy.
He had high hopes that visitors would leave the museum with a richer knowledge of the history of the Canadian Armed Forces and a greater appreciation for the 25-pounder howitzers he had used during his time in the military. He had worked with these howitzers during his time in the military. Everyone will be grieving his passing in their own unique ways. During this time of struggle, we want his family to know that we are thinking about and praying for them.
