DIGITAL EXHIBITIONS

RCAF Women’s Division: Canadian Military Pioneers

The RCAF Foundation is proud to share our new digital exhibition in collaboration with Google Arts & Culture.

Did you know that the shortages of men for military service led the RCAF to create the Canadian Women’s Auxiliary Air Force (CWAAF)? Learn all about the Women’s Division of the Royal Canadian Air Force and how it opened the door for women to serve in the RCAF permanently in our digital exhibition, Flight Firsts: RCAF Women’s Division: Canadian Military Pioneers.

More Digital Exhibitions coming!

Thank you to Brad St. Croix and to Marta Gocka for their assistance with this project.
