Air-Force.ca's Fallen Comrades

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



If the blood of France and of Germany flows again, as it did twenty-five years ago, in a longer and even more murderous war, each of the two peoples will fight with confidence in its own victory, but the most certain victors will be the forces of destruction and barbarism.

- Édouard Daladier, French Premier (1939)
