May/June 2009
Marchers at the Battle of Atlantic ceremony, May 1st, 2005. This year’s ceremony is on Sunday, May 3rd. See below for details.
Commemoration of the Battle of the Atlantic
All 410 Wing and Eastern Region Wing Members
are invited to attend the Battle of the Atlantic
Parade Sunday, May 3rd at the National War
Memorial.
Members to form up on Sparks Street (corner of Elgin) at 10:15 AM
Reception to be held afterwards in the Conference Centre across
from the Chateau Laurier Hotel. Association dress (cap and full-size
medals)
In recent years the Wing turnout on parade has been rather disappointing. The
RCAF along with the other Allied air forces played a major role in the winning of
the Battle of the Atlantic. 752 members of the RCAF died in maritime operations
as a result of enemy action and accidents in an unforgiving environment.
