Canadian Military Tribute: The Royal Canadian Air Force in the Gulf War, Kosovo, & Afghanistan

March 12, 2016 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Since the Second World War, Canadian defense policy has consistently stressed three overarching objectives: the defense of Canada itself, the defense of North America in cooperation with US forces, and contributing to broader international security. During the Cold War, a principal focus of Canadian defense policy was contributing to the security of Europe in the face of the Soviet military threat. However, since the end of the Cold War, the Canadian military has also become more deeply engaged most notably in Afghanistan since 2002. This year’s Canadian Military Tribute program will look more closely at the role played by the Canadian Air Force in the Gulf War, Kosovo, and Afghanistan.
Presenter: Maj. Bill March
