Last Post on the Web is reserved for these groups:
1) Canadian citizens and Commonwealth subjects who were ordinary members of The Royal Canadian Legion at time of death;
2) RCL life members who were previously ordinary members; and
3) Canadian war veterans (WW I, WW II, Korean War, Gulf War) who were not RCL members at time of death.

Currently the Last Post Section appears in print twice a year, in the spring and fall. Notices must be submitted to Legion Magazine by RCL branches on forms available from the RCL national headquarters. To be timely and respectful, we only publish in our print magazine those notices received at our Ottawa office within one year of the person's death. We do not publish notices that lack a date of death.

This computer database has created the new dimension of a historical archive. To make that archive more meaningful, and to honour the deceased, we began in November 2003 to enter in the database those Last Post notices received from Legion branches more than one year after the date of death. These late notices will NOT appear in the print magazine.
