WWSandMan Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 Oh, "through adversity to the stars" ... Makes more sense that way. Yeah, Googled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWZed Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 The new RCAF adopted the RAF’s motto Per Ardua Ad Astra – “Through adversity to the stars” – which replaced the CAF’s original motto Sic Itur Ad Astra – “Such is the pathway” (or “This is the way”) to the stars. The RCAF also adopted the RAF’s blue-grey uniform and, a couple of decades later, also borrowed the RAF’s march past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWDarkdiz Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 The RCAF also went back to silver cloth tunic wings, replaced the gold thread wings which were around from the time I joined. Metal wings are still gold though. We also kept our rank structure from WW1, based on army ranks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
