Six hearses lined up on the tarmac at Canadian Forces Base Trenton in Ontario today, as the Forces Members killed in Canada’s worst military tragedy in more than a decade were welcomed home. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Governor-General Julie Payette then watched as the casket carrying the remains of Sub-Lieutenant Abbigail Cowbrough was carried from a heavy transport aircraft. The service headdress of the other five killed in the crash were also returned as part of a symbolic repatriation.
