History is a master art, integrating all fields of knowledge to yield understanding of its chosen subjects. Tradition is a set of beliefs and attitudes which guide behaviour.
Heritage encompasses both, using the past to build for the future.
The Directorate of History and Heritage is therefore mandated to safeguard and disseminate Canadian military history and heritage to meet departmental goals, provide meritorious service recognition, and reinforce Canadian Forces identity. 3 - Traditions Maj.
