The monument, erected in 1964, is made up of two white concrete walls of different dimensions. The smallest has a polished granite identification plaque in the middle, 1.6 m above the ground. The largest wall was perforated at the same height as the plaque. The upper portion features a black painted steel cross in the shape of a sword. There are small stone walls on either side. Everything rests on a stone platform.

The Alma Cenotaph, erected by the Alma Royal Canadian Legion on November 9, 1947, is dedicated to the citizens of Alma who fought and died during the two World Wars.

The work of the attacking soldiers was created by sculptor Louis Sorbonne of Quebec. The plate is made of aluminum, significant because several facilities related to the aluminum industry were built in the area to aid in the war effort.

The cenotaph was placed at the corner of Collard Street and Regional Road. In 1962, it was moved near the Town Hall (Alma city center). Then in 1978, a small park was created at the entrance to the Riverbend area and the cenotaph was moved there.

This plaque was dedicated by Lachine employees of the Bell Telephone Company of Canada in honour of their comrade who gave his life in the Second World War. It is not known where the plaque is located now.

Charles William Kelsey (1877-1975) trained in England and emigrated to Montreal in 1922. His stained glass designs can be found in England, Australia, the United States and in over sixty-eight churches in Canada. His war memorial windows were commissioned between 1921 and 1956 including ten memorials for World War I, twenty-two memorials for World War II and ten memorials for both World Wars.

The Parish of St. Stephen, in Lachine, Quebec is one of the oldest Anglican churches in Canada having been founded in 1822.

A three panel World War II memorial window dedicated to Warrant Officer Class II Reginald Ernest Vokey is in the nave of St. Stephen's Anglican Church. Reginald was the son of Ernest William and Elsa May Vokey, of Lachine Quebec. This window was commissioned in July 1945, for $500.  The window depicts St Michael holding a flaming sword and a shield. Included is the badge for the 415 Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Force.

On September 21, 2017, Parks Canada unveiled a plaque in honour of local hero, Commander J. Campbell Clouston.

The plaque is located at the Canal-de-Lachine National Historic Site. It was unveiled with the Clouston family present, along with many dignitaries and Canadian Armed Forces representatives.

Clouston was survived by his wife and two sons, the younger of whom was in attendance for the unveiling ceremony.

Fort Rolland Street was named to commemorate Fort Rolland which was located close to the street bearing its name.

Fort Rolland was built by François LeNoir (dit Rolland) around 1670. LeNoir had arrived in Quebec City in August 1665 as a soldier in the Carignan- Salière Regiment but upon his discharge from the Army, he remained in Quebec and launched into the fur trade. In 1669 he requested a parcel of land in the area now known as Lachine and built a trading post protected by a stockade and a small garrison of soldiers. This post also served to protect the nearby inhabitants and became known as Fort Rolland. On 5 August 1689, Fort Rolland was attacked by the Iroquois; the structure and settlement were destroyed and the fort eventually abandoned.

This road, Korea Coree Road, commemorates the Canadian participation in the Korean War, when North Korean armed forces invaded South Korea. Canada joined the United Nations task force, consisting of 16 countries, to aide in the conflict. After the two world wars, Korea remains Canada’s third-bloodiest overseas conflict, taking the lives of 516 Canadians and wounding more than 1,200. It is a part of the National Field of Honour cemetery.

This memorial is dedicated to all Veterans.

The 1908 death of Trooper James Daly in Montreal, a soldier for over 20 years and a veteran of the South African War, was the catalyst that would lead to the creation of the Last Post Fund by Arthur Hair. Being a veteran of the South African War himself, and now an orderly at the hospital where Daly had been treated, Hair was shocked that the penniless Daly’s remains would likely be turned over to science for medical research, as was customary in those days. Hair raised money from friends and colleagues to give the soldier a decent and dignified funeral and Daly was buried at the Notre-Dame-des-Neiges cemetery on Mount-Royal. Wanting to ensure that no Veteran in need would ever be deprived of a dignified burial, Hair quickly founded the Last Post Fund in 1909 with the purchase of two plots on Mount Royal. With the advent of WWI, these two plots soon reached capacity, and in 1929 the Last Post Fund purchased six acres of land adjacent to the Lakeview Cemetery in Pointe-Claire. This piece of land would become the National Field of Honour, the final resting place for more than 20,000 servicemen and women, and their loved ones.

This memorial, of iron anchor on a granite base, is dedicated to the Veterans of the Canadian Navy and Merchant Navy interred at the National Field of Honour, unveiled by the Last Post Fund.
