The Soldiers' Tower was built by the University of Toronto Alumni Association in 1924 as a memorial to the Great War of 1914-1918. The names of those who died in that conflict are carved on the Memorial Screen at photo left. After the Second World War, more names were carved in the Memorial Arch at the Tower's base. In total, almost 1,200 names are inscribed. A Memorial Room inside the Tower contains mementoes and artifacts, and a 51-bell carillon serves as the audio element of the living memorial to the alumni, students, faculty and staff who died in the World Wars. The Soldiers' Tower is the site of an annual Service of Remembrance. Photo: Kathy Parks, Alumni Relations.

NAPLES WAR CEMETERY Italy
The NAPLES WAR CEMETERY lies in the locality of Miano at Via Vincenzo Ianfolla in the Commune and Province of Naples. It is situated on high ground about 4 kilometres north of the centre of the town.
Take Highway A, Rome-Naples. After the last toll booth, carry on following the signs for the airport. Pass the end of the airport approach road and turn right at the next 'T' junction following the main road for about 4 kilometres. The CWGC's first sign will then be seen.
