CFB Chilliwack's original camp in April 1942 was built of Bell Tents, and this life-size concrete Bell Tent serves as a reminder of the base's early years. There used to be a bailey bridge panel and a plaque located next to the 23,000 lbs monument, but the panel has since been removed and the plaque was moved to the Saluting Base.
