As part of our efforts to commemorate those who served with Bomber Command during World War II, the Nanton Lancaster Air Museum is pleased to announce the creation of “Canada’s Bomber Command Virtual Memorial.”

This memorial contains the names of the Canadians who were killed while serving with Bomber Command during World War II. They include those serving with the Royal Canadian Air Force as well as those serving with other air forces under Bomber Command. Also included are the names of those of non-Canadians who were members of the Royal Canadian Air Force and who were killed while serving with Bomber Command. There are 10,347 names in the Memorial. The list may be searched by last name, first name, date of death, unit, or combinations of the four.

We gratefully acknowledge the assistance of the Commonwealth Air Training Plan Museum and Hugh Halliday in the preparation of this Memorial. We also gratefully acknowledge our corporate sponsor Lexicom Internet Services for their technical expertise regarding the incorporation of this Memorial into our website.

The Nanton Lancaster Society Air Museum is the only facility in Canada whose primary goal is to honour those who served with Bomber Command. This Memorial is one of a number of initiatives we have and will be taking to commemorate the sacrifices of Canadians and others who served with Bomber Command.
