Memorial Fund Raising

Honorary Colonel Del Lippert has been tasked to investigate and execute a plan to have a Cenotaph erected to those 427 personnel who died while in service (Word file). Several financial funding options were investigated, however, the chosen option was to initiate a fund raising to pay for this Cenotaph which will be mounted in Petawawa. A bronze Lion, seen below, will be atop a pedestal with plaques inscribed with the names of the fallen. For a full description of Hon. Col. Lippert's activities click here. . The Air Force Association has also emailed to its membership a fund raising appeal in support of the Cenotaph. It can be accessed here.

The following information is from Honourary Colonel Del Lippert.
