What is the process for determining eligibility for the Seventh Book?
A. To ensure an individual is eligible to be included in the Seventh Book, his/her information must be verified. This process involves several key steps. First, an individual’s service files and other related records must be retrieved from Library and Archives Canada, and the contents reviewed. Next, an assessment of whether the individual meets the established eligibility criteria is completed. As a final step, the information is then cross-checked with the Department of National Defence.
