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. Only one in four aircrews completed their bomber tours: some were killed in action, some in training, others became prisoners of war. All volunteered. These are the stories of the valiant Canadians who fought in this brutal war.
