Notes
Section Officer Rose Goodman of New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, was reported killed accidentally (R.C.A.F. Casualty List No. 487), when the Crane training plane in which she was flying from Lethbridge crashed near Claresholm, Alberta. She was the first member of the Women’s Division of the Royal Canadian Air Force to lose her life on active service. Section Officer Goodman enlisted in the R.C.A.F. in October 1941 and received her preliminary training in Toronto, where she was a member of the first glass to graduate from the Administrative Training Course. After serving as sergeant instructress at Moncton, New Brunswick, she was commissioned and was posted to Alberta as adjutant. The New Glasgow News wrote of her passing: “...She made her choice; she has given her life for her country. “She served—and died—that men may fly. “That we may win this war.”
