Since 1975, the modern Canadian Air Force has been known as Canadian Forces Air Command (AIRCOM). The AIRCOM still refers to itself as the "Air Force" and maintains many of the traditions of the RCAF.
Now that it out of the way... Here are the enameled Cap Badge and Collar Badges of the Air Force, as worn by my father, for as long as I can remember.
Although I have never been a fan of Unification, I have to say that the Enameled badges of the CF are about the most beautiful badges I have ever seen.
