Imagine unrolling a piece of Canadian history so vast it takes up an entire room, only to realize nobody left a single note explaining where it came from. That was the tantalizing riddle sitting inside the Greenwood Military Aviation Museum , where a massive early 20th-century Canadian Red Ensign re-emerged, without a shred of paperwork. How'd they crack this cold case, and return the flag to a museum closer to its origins? Read more here https://auroranewspaper.com/2026/10/flag-without-a-past/

Imaginez que vous dérouliez un pan de l’histoire canadienne si vaste qu’il occupe une pièce entière, pour vous rendre compte ensuite que personne n’a laissé la moindre note expliquant d’où il provenait. C’était là l’énigme intrigante qui se cachait au Musée de l’aviation militaire de Greenwood, où un immense pavillon canadien « Red Ensign » datant du début du XXe siècle a refait surface, sans le moindre document d’accompagnement. Comment ont-ils réussi à résoudre cette affaire classée et à rendre le drapeau à un musée plus proche de ses origines?
