Battle of Vimy Ridge diorama donated to 8th Hussars Museum

Picture

A New Brunswick man, Nick Dunning , who creates realistic dioramas of military battle scenes out of his home calls it a passion and a duty and he has now donated  a piece in honour of the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge to the 8th Hussars Museum. Each piece of work Dunning creates has its start in his basement, which he calls “the bunker.” Dunning spends hours combining his passion for military history and his artistic eye for detail to recreate battles from the First and Second World Wars.

In 1968 / 1969  Nick wore the black beret as a reservist
with the 8th Canadian Hussars in Moncton at No. # 5 depot.


Interview with Nick Dunning
On March 29th 2017, a  group of 8th Hussars Museum committee members were at the Museum to greet Nick Dunning. Nick arrived to donate a new diorama honouring the Battle of Vimy Ridge . Incredible Work!!
We are very proud to have the addition of this diorama to our 2017 exhibits at the 8th Hussars Museum as we commemorate the 100th anniversary of the battle.

This diorama is a really accurate. I know that you are still pretty young, but I am really impressed with what you managed to do here. I want to see more of your diorama projects in the future, just thinking about it excites me. I work on the architectural side of things, so I want to see you grow. If you want to have a career in architecture, then just let me know, I will help you as much as I can.

    Welcome to the 8th Hussars Museum
     The 8th Hussars Museum is located in the historic Train Station in Sussex, NB. The building has been restored to its original grandeur and is situated in the hub of the Town of Sussex. The Victorian-era structure houses many of the important artifacts of the museum and is accessible to the general public. Since the later part of the 19th century, countless Hussars arrived by rail to train at Camp Sussex and later to serve in the South African War, WWI and WWII.
    The collection includes many items representing the life of the Regiment with original uniforms dating back to 1881, original Routine Orders dating back to 1893, memorabilia from members who represented the Regiment at Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, WWI, WWII, UN/NATO peacekeeping tours as well as the Afghanistan engagement. Of particular interest are the flags from each of these eras. The Museum also proudly holds the original accouterments of HRH The Princess Royal who is Colonel Commandant of the Regiment.
