The Royal Canadian Armed Farces

The decision to restore the "Royal" prefix to both the navy and the air force brought back to mind this 1967 cartoon by Duncan Macpherson:

Defence Minister Paul Hellyer on his way to pass the bill to merge the three branches of the Canadian Armed Forces.

A few favourite cartoons by the Toronto Star great:
