The media advisory refers to Master Corporal Christian Duchesne as being of the 5th Field Ambulance

The unit should more properly be referred to as 5e Ambulance de campagne.

The translation is correct but as a francophone unit it ought to be referred to by its French name.

So I shouldn't refer to the 12e Régiment blindé du Canada – Trois-Rivières as the " The 12th 'Blind of Canada' Regiment from Three Rivers"?
