Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

The Memorial Tower is graced with murals created by Ken Lochhead, Director of Art at Regina College from 1950 to 1964. Tracing Saskatchewan’s military history, the murals are divided into eight wall sections and were officially presented in a special service by his Honour the Lieutenant-Governor W.J. Patterson in 1954.

This section is a tribute to the fallen comrades depicted by the playing of Taps at a Flanders Field burial at the end of the First World War.
