Original Toronto Star caption: Grim business: No smiles here as these members of the militia reserve go about the serious business of searching out the enemy in the wilds of Toronto Island. The soldiers also took over the airport and the Island water filtration plant; supported by local naval and air reserve units. They paddled in assault boats to deep water in Lake Ontario; where a vessel from HMCS York took them to the Islands.
