Colonel Archer Fortescue "Scotty" Duguid (31 August 1887 – 4 January 1976) was a Scottish-Canadian engineer, army officer, historian, and vexillologist. Duguid was raised in Scotland and moved to Canada in 1906 to study at McGill University. In 1914 he received a commission in the Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) and served as an artillery officer in World War I. Following the war, in 1921 he was appointed director of the Canadian Militia's Historical Section, a position he held until 1945. He remained the official historian of the CEF until his retirement in 1947. In 1938, Duguid published the first and only entry in a planned eight-volume official history of Canada's participation in the Great War. Duguid was a noted expert in heraldry and vexillology, and designed a service flag for the Canadian Army that was in use from 1939 to 1944. He later modified the design as a proposed national flag of Canada. Among his other work as director of the Historical Section, Duguid designed the Memorial Chamber of the Peace Tower and was responsible for establishing red and white as the national colours of Canada. Duguid died in Kingston, Ontario, in 1976 at age 88.
