"A blast from the past: Troop transport through the ages. From Scouts' camp excursions to Guard of Honor for Sir Robert Baden-Powell, the Chief Scout, to wartime adaptations like the "missing Londoner" buses in German hands, or the colored soldiers' triumphant return from France. This rich history includes early military expeditions aboard the "Military Fly" in 1798, the transport leaving England for the Cape in 1900, and the London buses ferrying Scottish troops to the front during World War I. Even Canadian artillery joined the fray, entraining at Ottawa in 1901. Let us remember and honor the brave men and women who rode these vehicles to war."
