Air-Force.ca's Fallen Comrades

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old



The enemy bombards our front not only with a drumfire of artillery, but also with a drumfire of printed paper. Besides bombs, which kill the body, his airmen also throw down leaflets which are intended to kill the soul.

- Field Marshal Paul Von Hindenburg, 1847-1934
