Le Régiment de la Chaudière was formed following the amalgamation of the Regiments of "Dorchester et Beauce" and the "Megantic Machine Guns" on 15 December 1936. The regiment mobilized a battalion for the Canadian Active Service Force in 1939. Initially organized as a machine gun battalion, the battalion was sent to England in August 1941. The unit was assigned to the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division as a standard rifle battalion and was designated as a reserve battalion during the D-Day landings in June 1944. Le Régiment de la Chaudière came ashore at Bernières-sur-Mer along with The Queen's Own Rifles of Canada, surprising the locals who hadn't expected to find francophone troops in the liberating forces. It was the only French-Canadian Regiment to participate in Operation Overlord, along with the Commando Kieffer.
