In 2020, a Bridge of Remembrance was erected to honour the 119 fallen soldiers from Transcona who died during the First and Second World Wars and were buried overseas. The bridge connects the older Field of Honour area with the newly expanded area to the west. 

The military section of the Transcona Cemetery was established on June 18, 1918 when the Town Council of Transcona set aside Block 3 for the sole use of members of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. The military section was properly named Field of Honour in the 1980s.

Day Street was named in honour of Arthur H. Day in 1963. Little is known regarding his active military service during the Second World War. Following the war, Day worked as a school trustee in Transcona. 

Bradley Street was named in honour of Private Charles Edmund Bradley, Sergeant Hugh J. Bradley and Harold Bradley.

Private Charles Edmund Bradley served with the 8^th Battalion (90^th Winnipeg Rifles), Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War. He was killed in action in 1917 at 19 years of age. Prior to enlistment, Charles worked as an Apprentice Machinist.
