As we approached Remembrance Day, November 11th, 2022, here in Canada, we took the opportunity to acknowledge and honour the years of service our veterans have afforded this country and the sacrifices they made, often with their lives, to fulfill their mission of securing our borders and safety around the world.
But it’s also an opportunity to celebrate the rich history of this country that has informed and shaped our culture, our national identity and our place in the world.
In this special SSN series, we endeavor to explore some of the stories that are uniquely rooted in the history of the Royal Canadian Air Force and Canadian aviation.
