Cold Lake Heritage Plaque Eligibility Criteria This display of Heritage plaques is intended to remind us of the people who made our Military what it is today. It will evoke memories of those of us who cared, as well as those who cared for them.

It will celebrate the people that served their country, both in and out of uniform, in good times and bad. While our Air Park commemorates our flying machines, we also want it to celebrate the people who made them work. Therefore, in recognition of a one-time donation of $160.00 to the Cold Lake Air Force Museum, a unique and memorable Heritage Plaque will be place on a dedicated wall in the Museum that honours the memory of an individual, either living or deceased, on the Donor's behalf.

The plaques will remain the property of the Museum, and will be displayed in an appropriate and dignified manner. The donor will also be eligible for a tax receipt for the $160.00 donation.

The plaque are made of polished stone may be dedicated to any of the following:

1. Individuals who served with the RCAF, RCN, RCA, RNAS, RFC or RAF;

2. Current or former members of the Canadian Forces (Regular & Reserve);

3. Any Canadian citizen who has served at RCAF Station/CFB/4 Wing Cold Lake;

4. Any Canadian citizen who has served with Allied Forces;

5. The spouse of any individual covered under 1,2 or 3 above;

6. Foreign Military who have been assigned duty on Canadian soil;

7. Military members of Commonwealth Countries that participated in BCATP;

8. Regular members of The Air Force Association of Canada, and the Royal Canadian Legion;

9. Members of Registered Veteran’s Associations; and

10. Other persons, as deemed appropriate by the Executive Board of the CLAFM.

The plaques will have a uniformity of shape and colour, but will also be individual pieces of heritage information. Please keep in mind that we do not wish to create a formal memorial or churchyard atmosphere, but rather an air of celebration of those people involved in our great history. All plaques will contain the CFB Cold Lake, 4 Wing Cold lake Logo and a F-18 aircraft as the background.
