It should be noted that soldiers who have died in Afghanistan are not included in this list as that effort was not classified as Peacekeeping. Prior to the deaths of Sgt. Marc D. Léger, Cpl. Ainsworth Dyer, Pte. Richard A. Green and Pte. Nathan Smith, all of the PPCLI, no other Canadian had died in an active “offensive” theatre since the end of the Korean conflict in the 1950s.
