The traveling vigil is made up of memorial plaques of Canadian military members that were killed during the Afghanistan war. The plaques were at the Kandahar Air Field in Afghanistan during Canada’s military presence. The display is making its way across Canada and will be in Ottawa for Remembrance Day.
