The high-performance Laminate on Dibond plaque is attached to a wooden background. An RCAF flag flies beside it. Telegraph Cove Resort owner Gordie Graham built the wooden support frame and installed the flag on a viewing platform beside the boat launch in late summer of 2015.
On 26 September 2015, the 75th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain, 101 Squadron RCAFA and 19 Wing RCAF dedicated this plaque commemorating the period, 1941-45, that Telegraph Cove was an RCAF Station. It was a picture-perfect fall day. LCol Gilles Couture, 19 Wing OpsO, was the RCAF representative. There were numerous other guests from 19 Wing, 888 Wing, and 101 Squadron. 101 fielded a full colour party, an MC and a bugler.
A special guest was Jennifer Butler who is the granddaughter of Fred Wastell who told us of a few recollections of visiting the Cove during this time.
