En 2011, pour reconnaître le patrimoine militaire du Canada, le nom historique des trois services militaires du Canada a été réinstauré : la Marine royale canadienne (MRC), l’Armée canadienne (AC) et l’Aviation royale canadienne (ARC). C’est sous ces désignations que les Canadiens sont ressortis vainqueurs de la Seconde guerre mondiale, et qu’ils ont plus tard défendu les intérêts canadiens pendant la Guerre froide et la Guerre de Corée. 5, record 1, French, - Association%20de%20l%27Aviation%20royale%20canadienne
