Biografie
Charles Perry Stacey (1906-1989) was the Chief Army Historian during 1945-1959. Born in Toronto, he received his undergraduate education at the University of Toronto and completed his PhD at Princeton University where he also taught from 1934-1940. During the Second World War, Stacey served as the Canadian Army's historical officer in London, England. Immediately following the war he became the Chief Army Historian, a position he held until retirement in 1959.

In 1965 he moved back to Ottawa for a year in order to preside over National Defence's newly unified triservice Directorate of History.
