Erected by Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 29, this memorial is dedicated to the local war dead of the First and Second World Wars. The original memorial was constructed in 1926 by First World War veterans to commemorate all local veterans who fought and died in the War. Prior to the Second World War, the memorial was upgraded (date unknown) and again upgraded after the War to include the names of those Second World War veterans killed in action. Annual ceremonies have taken place, at the memorial, on November 11th since its original construction. Current maintenance and upkeep is done by the Legion and Village of Plaster Rock.
