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 Frist World War Plaque is in the 48th Highlanders Museum located in the basement of St. Andrews Church.

The 134th Battalion, which was authorized on 22 December 1915 as the 134th "Overseas" Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force, embarked for Britain on 8 August 1916. The battalion provided reinforcements to the Canadian Corps in the field until 7 March 1918, when its personnel were absorbed by the 12th Reserve Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force. The battalion was disbanded on 29 November 1918.
