END OF AN ERA<br />

FIRST WORLD WAR VETERANS<br />

– THE END OF AN ERA<br />

For Canada, events that took place during the First World War<br />

were defining moments. Canada grew into nationhood, and<br />

those who served in the Canadian Armed Forces at that time<br />

earned a peerless reputation of courage and commitment. Two<br />

generations later, Canadians still recognize that those who served<br />

and those who died are owed a debt that can never be repaid.<br />

Now that the last of the Canadian Veterans of the First World War<br />

has passed away, it is even more important that we ensure that<br />

the memory of their sacrifices will never be forgotten. 628,736 of<br />

our fellow citizens stepped forward to serve. 66,573 of them died.<br />

The Royal Canadian Legion will always Remember.<br />

Actual Size, Pin and Card<br />

The End of an Era Commemorative Pin<br />

The Supply Department is pleased to introduce a lapel pin<br />

dedicated to the preservation of the memory of the Veterans<br />

of the First World War. It is composed of a wreath of maple<br />

leaves embracing the torch of Remembrance being passed from<br />

one generation to the next, graced with a scroll announcing<br />

“Memoriam Eorum Retinebimus” – We Will Remember Them.<br />

Our commitment to quality in our lapel pins continues in this<br />

beautifully struck and enamelled pin. We encourage you to wear<br />

this pin as recognition of the accomplishments of the Veterans of<br />

the First World War, and as a commitment that their memory will<br />

not fade.<br />

D-DAY 1944<br />

D-DAY 1944 - JUNO BEACH<br />

Of all the significant events of the 20th Century, the Normandy Invasion on 6 June<br />

1944 was the most important, changing the<br />

course of history. It marked the beginning of<br />

the end of Nazi rule in Europe and ultimately<br />

led to the development of the modern world.<br />

Canada made a major contribution to the<br />

D-Day attack by taking responsibility for<br />

one of the five beachheads, known forever<br />

afterwards as Juno Beach. 14,000 Canadian<br />

troops by ship and 450 by parachute landed<br />

in the early hours of that fateful day,<br />

supported by the Royal Canadian Navy and<br />

the Royal Canadian Air Force.<br />

Juno Beach represents the will of Canada<br />

as a nation to preserve and defend freedom<br />

and democracy, not only for ourselves but<br />

also for others saddled with the yoke of<br />

oppression. The Supply Department of The<br />

Royal Canadian Legion is proud to recognize<br />

the achievements of those Canadians who<br />

took part in this heroic event with this<br />

collection of commemorative products.<br />

All of these items can be worn by Legion<br />

members and the Canadian public alike,<br />

so that all Canadians may take part in this<br />

worthy tribute.<br />

Commemorative Pin<br />

Recognition of this major event in Canada’s<br />

history compelled our designers to put<br />

extra effort into producing a quality lapel<br />

pin worthy of the occasion. The beautifully<br />

enamelled Poppy is die-stamped<br />

separately, then attached to the heavily<br />

embossed and enamelled body of the<br />

pin. Finally, the Rhodium plating produces<br />

the high lustre finish. It is available in both<br />

official languages and is suitable for wear<br />

on all occasions from formal to everyday.<br />

D-Day Juno Beach<br />

Commemorative Watch (English Only)<br />

These days it is difficult to find anything that was made with<br />

simplicity in mind. Your phone has to be everything from a<br />

video game to an electronic message centre. Your watch has<br />

to be a digital GPS memo-keeping calculator and calendar<br />

that just coincidentally keeps time (in several time zones).<br />

In commemoration<br />

of the anniversary of<br />

Juno Beach, we opted<br />

for a timepiece that harkens<br />

back to a kinder, gentler time. It<br />

has a classic analog face imprinted with our D-Day<br />

Juno Beach image, enhanced with a brushed nickel<br />

finish, a domed crystal and a traditional watchband.<br />

All it does is keep beautiful time. Each watch is<br />

supplied in a leatherette presentation case, making<br />

it a perfect gift for acknowledging those deserving<br />

people who make your world a better place.<br />
