The Base Borden Military Museum is one of Canada’s largest military museums. The Museum holds a significant collection of WWI, WWII and post-war armoured vehicles, trucks, and aircraft. The Museum tells the story of Camp Borden and the various Schools, Corps and Branches that have their heritage vested at Base Borden. The museum complex consists of several buildings and a memorial park. The main Museum building, on the corner of Dieppe and Waterloo Roads, is a renovated WWII Armoured Corps’ Officers’ Mess. This building details the history of Borden. Major General Worthington Memorial Park, commonly referred to as “Tank Park”, contains some armoured vehicles and artillery pieces from Canada, United States and England, as well as other countries from around the world. These date from WWI to modern Soviet armoured vehicles. Major General Worthington Park, named for the Father of the Armoured Corps is consecrated ground containing two graves and four cenotaphs. It is a quiet area of reflection with benches provided for visitor comfort. (Source: Borden.forces.gc.ca).
Frederic Franklin “Worthy” Worthington was an army officer, engineer, and adventurer. He was born at Peterhead, Scotland, on 14 Sep 1889. Orphaned at 11, he became the ward of a half-brother (later murdered by Villista irregulars) in Mexico, later going to sea and, as a “sailor of fortune”, briefly commanding the tiny Nicaraguan navy in 1907. His earlier life in Mexico led him to sympathize with the ideals of Francisco Madero, for whose cause he fought during the revolution. At the start of WWI, he joined the Canadian Motor Machine Gun Brigade and was promoted to battery commander in France. He was awarded the Military Medal for actions near Vimy Ridge, on 6 January 1917, for holding his position during a German advance. He was later known to say that until Vimy Ridge he really never felt Canadian, but after Vimy Ridge never felt he was anything but a Canadian. He joined the peacetime Permanent Force of the Armed Forces, developing his doctrine of firepower plus mobility. In WWII, Maj-Gen Worthington founded the Canadian Armoured Corps. Later he was selected to organize, command and take overseas both the 1st Army Tank Brigade and the 4th Canadian Armoured Division. In 1944, he returned to command Camp Borden, training replacements for the Armoured Corps and the Infantry, as well as the Royal Army Service Corps and the Canadian Provost Corps. Resigning his commission in 1947, he was appointed the first civil defence co-ordinator, a position which he held until 1957, stepping down to enter the business community. After Worthington’s death in Ottawa on 8 December 1967 he was buried at Canadian Forces Base Borden according to his wishes. His wife was eventually buried beside him. (Source: Canadian Encylopedia, Wikipedia, Borden.forces.gc.ca).
The Borden military museum was established in the 1990s. In June 2007 a new main building for the museum complex was opened. It has a large hangar for the display of historic military vehicles; unfortunately the interior lighting is dark with a green hue, making photography difficult. The museum has a gift shop that is open during regular weekday hours only.

Major General Worthington Memorial Park

Most of the tanks in the Borden collection are displayed around Worthington Park, beside the museum. A sign at the entrance reads:

WELCOME TO
MAJOR GENERAL
WORTHINGTON
MEMORIAL PARK

THIS AREA CONTAINS GRAVES,
SPREAD ASHES SITES,
CENOTAPHS AND MEMORIALS.
IT IS CONSECRATED GROUND
PLEASE ACT ACCORDINGLY

FOR THE MILITARY THIS IS AN
ATTENTION AREA

At the centre of the park is a war memorial consisting of a stone obelisk and a flagpole flanked by two Stuart tanks. Below it on a grass slope is written in stone “WORTHINGTON PARK”. On it there is an RCAC symbol, a small plaque that reads “KOREA 1950 – 1953” and a large plaque that reads:

DEDICATED TO
THE PROUD MEMORY OF ALL
THE ROYAL CANADIAN ARMOURED CORPS
PERSONNEL WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES
FOR CANADA
AND THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM
IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR
1939 – 1945

The Park also contains the grave site of Major General F.F. Worthington, a Royal Canadian Regiment Korea memorial, and a recent memorial to post-war RCAC members (including casualties on UN and ISAF operations).

This early Ram (with side doors) was seen at the West Grenade Range in about 2004 (source: A. Davis/Maple Leaf Up via SCACT). It is little more than a shell, missing its turret, engine, tracks, and many other components.
