Canadian Service Men and Service Women

Post by paddyscar » Thu Feb 08, 2007 11:13 pm

The Royal Canadian Legion has published short death notices since 1928 for Canadians who served their country. Through the Internet they provide free access to the Last Post database from February 1990 onward. They add to the over 115,000 records twice a year as notices are received. Gradually, they will go back further in time as resources become available.
