This memorial was dedicated to Corporal Dyer Ainsworth and crew who were killed in a friendly fire incident in Afghanistan on the night of 17 April 2002. Corporal Dyer and three other soldiers from Alpha Company of 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry were killed, and eight others injured, from a bomb dropped on them by a formation of two United States Air Force F-16 fighter aircraft. The Canadian Forces soldiers were conducting a night live-fire training exercise at a place known as the Tarnak Farm, located about 15 kilometers from the Kandahar airfield and base in Afghanistan.

The three other soldiers killed were: Private Nathan Smith, age 26, from Halifax, Nova Scotia; Private Richard Green, age 21, from Mill Cove, Nova Scotia; and Sergeant Marc D. Leger, age 29, from Lancaster, Ontario.
