This memorial is a stainless steel obelisk mounted on a concrete slab. It was placed beside the launch at the former RCAF Base Coal Harbour. Also on this slab is a monument to the personnel who served on the Base, which was used as a whaling station after the War and a whale harpoon gun is mounted on the slab to depict this. A 20 foot flag pole flies the RCAF Ensign. It is dedicated to the crew of Stranraer 951, and was unveiled on September 14, 2007 by 101 Squadron RCAFA.
