“To Honour. To Remember. To Never Forget.”
Join us for a solemn and significant Commemoration Ceremony marking the 35th anniversary of the end of the Gulf War, a pivotal international conflict that shaped modern Canadian military history. On March 3, 1991, the Gulf War officially ended following a United Nations-sanctioned coalition effort to liberate Kuwait.
Over 4,000 Canadian Armed Forces members answered the call, participating in air, naval, and medical operations across the Persian Gulf as part of Operations FRICTION, SCIMITAR, and ACROPOL. All members of the public, veteran community, and military families are welcome.
This event is hosted by the National Military Cemetery and in partnership with Persian Gulf Veterans of Canada.
