James Eagle (Primary Source)

In 2012, The Memory Project interviewed James Wilfred Eagle, a Saulteaux veteran of the Korean War. The following recording (and transcript) is an excerpt from this interview. Eagle was born in 1934 on the Valley River Reserve in Manitoba and attended the Pine Creek Residential School (Camperville, Manitoba), between 1941 and 1946. In December 1952, he enlisted as an infantry soldier in The Queen’s Own Rifles of Canada. In February 1954, Eagle arrived in Korea as part of the regiment’s 2nd Battalion, which spent a year enforcing the armistice signed in July 1953. In this testimony, Eagle describes his time in Korea, including the accidental death of a friend. Eagle served in the Canadian army for 25 years, including periods in Cyprus, Germany and bases in Canada. After retiring, he became involved in the Indigenous friendship centre movement. He eventually moved to Ottawa, where he became executive director of the Odawa Native Friendship Centre. He was also head of the Ottawa chapter of the National Aboriginal Veterans Association and fought for a National Aboriginal Veterans Monument, which was unveiled in Confederation Park in Ottawa in 2001. Eagle died on 11 April 2023 in Ottawa. Please be advised that Memory Project primary sources may deal with personal testimony that reflect the speaker’s recollections and interpretations of events.
