RCAF Station Marville, No. 1 (F) Wing
The Canada Aviation and Space Museum is developing a new exhibition about the Cold War, and needs your help.
The Museum is looking for photos that highlight Canadian family experiences of daily life while serving overseas in Europe with the RCAF during the Cold War. School photos, images that depict recreational activities such as scouts or sports and family photos of daily home life on a European RCAF base are all examples of the types of images the Museum hopes to present.
The Cold War Exhibition will open onsite at the Canada Aviation and Space Museum in the spring of 2024.
