1. Filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia.~2. Subject description is based on Associated Screen News Limited caption sheet, which indicates that no other newsreel companies covered this story. ~3. Caption sheet also states that the awards were principally for devotion to duty and efficient work. The event was strictly by invitation and informal. There was no march past, no guard of honour or saluting.~4. William Wilson Colledge won the DFC because he was attacked by four enemy aircraft, he shot down one and damaged two others before they shot him down.~5. A letter from Russell Muth, Foreign Director, Fox Movietone News, dated 26 May 1944, to J.M. Campbell, Associated Screen News Limited, Western Avenue at Decarie Boulevard, Montreal, states that the newsreel footage entitled INVESTITURE, sent by ASN to Fox on 13 May 1944, is badly under-developed and jittery due to some fault in the camera mechanism. Muth also says that another newsreel item sent to Fox, entitled SPRAYING FORESTS, could not be used because there were no scenes of the spray and that the Fox "Make-up staff considered these stories so poor, we had to turn them down."
