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.

This three-foot high memorial, in the shape of a rough-cut grave marker, was initially placed in Strathcona Field at Sarcee Barracks in Calgary, Alberta on 11 November 1977. It was dedicated to all the fallen of the Lord Strathcona’s Horse (Royal Canadians) and became a central part in their Remembrance Day ceremonies. The memorial was moved to its current location in 1999.
