"Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial"

 GIVE TO HONOUR, THOSE WHO GAVE

The Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial is a beautiful, permanent memorial honouring our Canadian soldiers - the men and women who have sacrificed their lives in the conflict in Afghanistan.

Set in a park like setting on the beautiful Bay of Quinte and with 8 Wing/Canadian Forces Base Trenton - Canada's largest Air Force base nearby, the Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial is a fitting tribute not far from where Canadian repatriation ceremonies occur and at the beginning of our fallen soldiers' journey along the Highway of Heroes, from Trenton to Toronto. These motorcades saw thousands of Canadians on many of Highway 401's overpasses paying tribute to those killed in action, and their families, all the way to Toronto.

The entire site was designed to be reflective and contemplative in character and harmonize with its surroundings. Within the Memorial's circular form, two granite benches provide seating for those who come to reflect and enjoy the peace and beauty of the memorial site and park.

Please join all Canadians coast to coast who have already been giving to the Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial Fund. This is not a government initiative, but solely funded by Canadians honouring Canadian soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice during the Afghanistan Conflict.
