*The Regimental Mascot is a near life-sized wooden native called: "Chief Petawawa-Much" 
*The Cap badge is backed in crimson 
*The official regimental nickname: "The Ploughjockies" earned during WWII, given at first antagonistically by some of the Toronto Regiments because of the Hasty P's rural roots. It became a mark of distinction as the unit's fighting prowess became well known. 
*B Coy (present day Moro Coy) was reactivated with the reduction to nil strength, and subsequent disbandment of The Peterborough Rangers, Royal Canadian Artillery. This Battery had made it's home in the Peterborough armoury, from the time of it's construction. (the source believes in 1915).
