Air-Force.ca's Fallen Comrades

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



The battle we are now approaching demands a colossal measure of production capacity. No limit on rearmament can be visualized. The only alternatives are victory or destruction... We live in a time when the final battle is in sight. We are ready on the threshold of mobilization and we are already at war. All that is lacking is the actual shooting.

- Reich Marshal Hermann Goering, Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe (1936)
