Incredible Tales of the Royal Canadian Air Force

Unsung Heroes of World War II

by Cynthia Faryon

The stories of the valiant Canadians who enlisted in the RCAF and fought during WWII

More than 250,000 courageous men and women were enlisted in the RCAF during World War II. They fought in all the major air operations. Thousands lost their lives.
