MEMOIR OF THE
GREAT WAR.
"4TH AUG. 1914 TO 11TH NOV. 1918 -
This Cross was constructed
by the Pioneer section of
the 46th Battalion, C.E.F.
at the Village of Carency,
France, after the Battle
of Vimy Ridge, to commem-
orate those of the
Battalion who paid the supreme sacrifice during
the engagement.
It was placed on the
Ridge at night during
the latter part of June,
1917, with a dedication
service conducted by the
Chaplain and stood at
the "Pimple", a strongly
fortified knoll, bristling
with machine guns on the
North of Vimy Ridge. This
part of the Ridge was held
by the Germans until the
12TH of April, 1917, when it
was captured by the
46TH Battalion.
The stand on the
"Pimple" was the last stand
of the Germans on Vimy
Ridge.
The Cross remained there until after the
Armistice. When the
Dominion of Canada erected
a permanent memorial
before the Canadian Corps,
it was sent to Moose Jaw
and finally place in this
Church May 25TH 1930,
with a special service
largely attended by the
members of the 46TH
Battalion residing in
Moose Jaw and district.
This Cross is made of
oak taken from a chateau
demolished by shell fire
in Ecurie Village.
It is regrettable that one
of the panels, containing
names of the killed is
missing.

THE 46TH BATTALION, CEF MEMORIAL
The 46th Battalion's Memorial pictured below is located in Administration Square on the grounds of the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon.
A large number of men who served in the 46th were associated with the University. The members of the Battalion who were associated
with the University have their names inscribed on the walls of the Memorial Union Building (MUB) on Campus as well as on the Memorial Gates
at the entrance to the Main Campus.
The copy of the memorial Bronze located in the the Lt.Col. D.V. Currie VC Armoury in Moose Jaw is the original plaster cast from which the Bronze
Memorial was made. The process of making the Bronze Plaque included the making of the plaster cast and then making a reverse image of the
plaster cast in very fine sand resulting in a perfect mould. After carefully removing the plaster mould from the sand the Bronze was poured into the
mould creating the Memorial pictured below.
For many years the plaster copy languished in the armoury and was in very poor condition. In 2005 it was refurbished, framed and placed on display.
