 |  |  | Canadian Navy Heritage Project's Halifax Archive (pics!)
< on 2/1/2008 7:18 PM >
|  | | | I came across the Canadian Navy Heritage Project while looking for a map of York Redoubt on Google. WOW. What a wealth of information and photographs! Just thought I'd share. 
| The Canadian Navy Heritage website was mandated by the Chief of the Maritime Staff to provide for a centralized repository of information on the customs, traditions, history and heritage of the Naval Service in Canada. This site is broken down into three major sections; “History and Heritage”, “Customs and Traditions” and the “Photo Archive”. Each of these three sections has an individual introduction page that will provide greater detail regarding the contents of each. |
They offer a *.zip archive of all the Halifax pictures in high resolution... Here are my favourites:

Have faith only in those who you trust. And hold who you trust close to you for you have no idea when you will need them most.
