November 11 (10 a.m.)
It has been called ‘The Great War’ and ‘The war to end all wars.’ We know it best as the First World War. It began in 1914 and ended with an armistice at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918.
Fittingly falling on Remembrance Sunday, the centennial of the Armistice Day will be commemorated at the National Remembrance Day Ceremony at the National War Memorial.
If you cannot make it downtown, join us at the Canada Aviation and Space Museum for a public viewing of the live broadcast on a big screen amongst the aircraft in our collection.
November 4 (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.)
For a fifth consecutive year, a team of local historical interpreters (Daniel, Bruce, Patrice and Vishal) will display authentic items — including uniforms, insignias and badges, medals, coins and pictures. These items represent selected historical themes, including the end of World War One (especially the Royal Flying Corps and 1918 Armistice), the evolution of military aircrew flying equipment and a collection of coins related to the Royal Canadian Air Force.
