Air-Force.ca's Fallen Comrades

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



With Malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the world we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds.

- Abraham Lincoln: Second Inaugural Address, 1865.
