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 memorial, erected by the town of Cache Bay and dedicated on 11 November 1950, is dedicated to the local veterans and war dead of the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War.

A lamp post built into the stone cairn can still be lit to remember the men of this community who gave their lives in the wars.
