Accompanied by a Second World War era field gun, this cairn is dedicated to the memory of the local war dead of the First and Second World Wars and was unveiled on 14 June 1952. The Legion Branch leased a piece of land from the Northern Alberta Railroad for the cairn for the duration of 90 years at 1.00 per year. The legion members hauled the rocks used in the construction of the cairn, and they purchased gravel, sand, and cement. A stone mason constructed the cairn, and a bronze plaque was purchased to be placed on it.

In 1925, the War Memorial Committee, along with the Alumni Association acting as the finance committee, raised the $12,000 to purchase and dedicate the University War Memorial Pipe Organ, which sits in Convocation Hall at the University of Alberta. The organ is dedicated to 80 University of Alberta comrades who gave up their lives during the First World War. In 1947, after twenty-three years of use, the pipe organ was thoroughly cleaned and reconditioned.

Erected in 1925 by Casavant Frères, a Canadian pipe organ company, the organ is in memory of the 80 University of Alberta comrades who gave up their lives during WWI.

This memorial is dedicated to those who served their country. It was erected by the Royal Canadian Legion Strathcona Branch 150. In the future, they would like to include a photo and a short biography of each member. They wish to have everyone read about those who have passed and never forget them. This memorial was originally located in front of the legion at 10416 - 82 Avenue. However, it was vandalized in 2005 and a similar memorial was constructed at the new location.

The Milners represent an outstanding example of Alberta’s service to Canada’s military. Seven family members, including fathers, brothers and wives, served from the First World War to Stanley Milner’s work with the South Alberta Light Horse Regiment. Stanley Milner exemplified his family’s commitment to the military, serving in the 2nd Battalion, Saskatoon Light Infantry and the Canadian Officer Training Program. He also served as Honourary Colonel of the South Alberta Light Horse Regiment and founded the South Alberta Light Horse Regiment Foundation, a group which preserves regimental history and provides support for retired soldiers and military families. He was also a successful businessman, city alderman and philanthropist

In 1996, the library was officially renamed the Stanley A. Milner Library in his honour.

This street commemorates those who fought at the Battle of Cambrai in the First World War.

The Battle of Cambrai in northern France took place from 27 September to 11 October 1918, during the First World War. The battle was among the Canadian Corps' most impressive tactical victories of the war, particularly because of the Canadians' skillful use of military engineers. It was part of a series of connected battles at the start of the Hundred Days Campaign, which would lead to the defeat of Germany and the end the war.

This street commemorates those who fought at the Bay of Biscay during the Second World War.

With the fall of France in 1940 the French ports on the Bay of Biscay became a major base of operations for the German submarine fleet. To transit into the Atlantic the submarines had to first cross the Bay and thus it became a significant battlefield of the Second World War.

On 18 August 1944, HMCS Kootenay, a part of Escort Group 11 (Captain J.D. Prentice, Royal Canadian Navy), picked up a radar contact 60 miles off of the French port of La Rochelle. That proved to be the opening move of an 8-hour long struggle between Ottawa, Kootenay and Chaudière and the German submarine U 621. Although oil and wreckage came to the surface there had been no definite proof of a kill when EG 11 was ordered to return to Plymouth. The following morning HMCS Chaudière was ordered by headquarters in Plymouth to return to the scene of the action to make further searches. Diligence was rewarded when Chaudière obtained a firm radar contact and made an attack with Hedgehog (depth charges). The result was a massive explosion as well as wreckage and patches of dense oil.

The Canadian ships were now directed to leave the Bay of Biscay for Londonderry. As they proceeded north, past the port of Brest, another radar contact was made and attacked. Again there were no signs of wreckage and eventually the ships were told to break off the engagement. It was only after the war had ended that they were to discover that they had also sunk U 984.
