Submitted by: Victoria Edwards. City of Winnipeg Archives.

This Roll of Honour lists names of Winnipeg City employees who enlisted in the Second World War. On July 15, 1946, the Committee on Legislation and Reception made a formal recommendation in Council that such an honour roll be made and the recommendation was forwarded to Mayor Coulter. John D. Duthie completed the Roll of Honour in 1947.

It hung in City Hall until transferred to the Archives for safekeeping. This Roll of Honour consists of 537 hand painted names of City of Winnipeg employees who served in the Second World War. The names are organized by the department they worked in and stars are placed next to the names of those who died during the war. The title at the top consists of calligraphy, as well as a Union Jack flag rising out of the letters. The center of the print showcases an image of a knight's helmet and a sheathed sword above an image of the City of Winnipeg seal. The bottom features a quote from the ancient Greek leader Pericles.

537 NAMES

"So they gave their bodies to the
Commonwealth and received, each for
his memory, praise that will never die,
and with it the noblest sepulchre - not
the spot where the bones are laid,
but a home in the hearts of men"
