In the Service of Canada The Seventh Book of Remembrance was dedicated on November 11, 2005. It was created to honour the valiant men and women in the Canadian Forces who gave their lives in service to Canada since October 1947, with the exception of those commemorated in the Korean Book of Remembrance. To date, the names of 1,300 Canadian Forces members have been entered into the Seventh Book of Remembrance.

The Seventh Book of Remembrance is unique because it is a living document that will be used to commemorate those who have given their lives "In the Service of Canada" for generations to come.

Canadians are encouraged to continue contributing to the Seventh Book and the Canadian Virtual War Memorial. For information on how to submit an individual's name for the Seventh Book, please visit the "Continuing to Build the Seventh Book of Remembrance" section of our Frequently Asked Questions. Families of deceased Canadian Forces members - and members of the Canadian public - can search the Canadian Virtual War Memorial for those commemorated in the Seventh Book.
