Borden at 110: Stories That Built a Base

For 110 years, CFB Borden has stood as a cornerstone of training and community within the Canadian Armed Forces. From its beginnings in 1916 to its role today as the CAF’s largest training base, Borden’s story is one of growth and unwavering dedication.

To honour this milestone, The Borden Bugler is proud to present a special multi‑part series celebrating the people, history, and spirit that have shaped the base for more than a century. This series features a collection of stories that reflect on our past, highlight our present, and look ahead to the future. It invites readers to explore Borden’s legacy from every angle: its origins, evolution, community, and the people who have called CFB Borden home.

As we mark 110 years, we celebrate not just a base, but a living, thriving institution built on service, innovation, and the strength of its people. Join us as we reflect and chart the next chapter of Borden’s enduring story.
