Joseph Lenarcik, Assistant Curator of the CFB Esquimalt Naval and Military Museum recently spent some time at the Law Library, and has published a brief article in issue 12(1) of the Museum’s newsletter Headway outlining Diana. M. Priestly’s life and work, and noting in particular her service in the Women’s Royal Canadian Naval Service in the second world war.
The museum kindly gave us permission to post the whole issue here.
Considering the last sentence of the article, it is timely and useful to note the announcement of the Diana M Priestly Memorial Scholarship, applications for which are accepted until Feb 1, 2015. This scholarship may be of interest to our current or future students.
