Editing Governor General's Body Guard (section)

=== Great War ===
The GGBG, like all of the militia during the First World War, was not activated for duty, but rather assisted in raising numbered battalions for the Canadian Expeditionary Force and recruiting to fill the CEF ranks.  Thousands of Toronto's citizens were recruited through the GGBG for service in the trenches. The GGBG supplied soldiers for the [[3rd Battalion (Toronto Regiment), CEF|3rd Bn]], [[2nd Battalion (Eastern Ontario Regiment), CEF|2nd Bn]], 4th [[Canadian Mounted Rifles|CMR]], [[216th Battalion (Bantams), CEF|216th Bn]], [[124th Battalion (Governor General's Body Guard), CEF|124th Bn]] to name a few.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":3" /><ref name=":1" />
