Squadron Leader
Heanry Wallace "Wally" McLeod
DSO, DFC
Squadron Leader McLeod was born in Regina, Saskatchewan on December 17, 1915.
A graduate of the Regina Normal School, he joined the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) on September 2, 1940
and received his Pilot Wings in April 1941 at Borden, Ontario
prior to his posting overseas and subsequent assignment to No. 132 (Fighter) Squadron.
Seeing action in the skies over England, Malta, and again from England and Northwest Europe,
he accumulated a record of 21 confirmed aerial victories with 16 probables, making him the RCAF's
highest scoring fighter 'ACE' of the Second World War.
For his many exploits Squadron Leader McLeod was twice awared the Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC),
along with the Distinguished Service Order (DS)).
On December 23, 1943 Squadron Leader McLeod was appointed Commanding Officer of No. 127 (Fighter) Squadron,
which was subsequently renamed No. 443 Squadron, thus becoming its first Commanding Officer.
On September 27, 1944 he was killed while leading his squadron on offensive operations from a forward airfield in Holland.
At a dedication ceremony held on September 15, 2002 Thelma Ann McLeod, his sister, and Colonel B.A. McQuade, Commanding
Officer of 15 Wing Moose Jay unveiled the cairn officially dedicating this building to the memory of Squadron Leader McLeod.

Erected by the Saskatchewan History and Folklore Society on 1 July 1990, this memorial is dedicated to the memory of those who served at No. 2 Bombing and Gunnery School during the Second World War.

The school’s proud motto “aim well – shoot straight” perpetuates the dedication and purpose of these airmen and airwomen to maintain democracy and restore peace throughout the world.

In addition to the monument at its head office in Toronto, the Canadian Bank of Commerce honoured employees from each branch who served in the First World War. This plaque was commissioned shortly after the war and dedicated to the bank's 1701 employees who served in the war, 321 laid down their lives. The names of 15 employees of the Moose Jaw Canadian Bank of Commerce who served in the war are listed on the plaque.

The plaque features the caduceus logo of the bank - two snakes winding around a winged staff at the upper left, and two poppies intertwined with a symbolic olive branch at the lower right. The Canadian Bank of Commerce went to great lengths to commemorate its staff that served in the war including a two-volume book of staff profiles and accounts of their war experiences.

The Canadian Pacific Railway Great War Tablet in the Moose Jaw Station was dedicated on April 28, 1922. 

To honour those who served and gave their lives during the Great War, the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) erected a series of bronze memorial tablets in over twenty select locations along their railway system and offices in Canada, United States, England and China. The tablet depicts Britannia, the national personification of Britain, as a helmeted female warrior with a lion to her right and a shield at her feet, HMS Lion (Admiral Beatty's flagship during the Battle of Jutland) with airplanes above and a tank in front, Canadian Pacific Steamship RMS Empress of Russia (used during the war as an armed merchant cruiser and transport ship), Canadian troops, and a CPR locomotive in a nod to all those who travelled by train across Canada before heading overseas. The plaque was designed by Archibald Pearce, Chief Engineer's Department, Montreal, with its model and casting by the Bromsgrove Guild at Worcester, England.
