This granite cross and base has 17 different small plaques with the names of these men who served during WW I, WW II, and Korea.

Located in Salmon Arm Cenotaph Park, it is very well maintained with flower beds, a large maple tree and a small pathway leading to the memorial. A flagpole with the Canadian flag is nearby.

We honour these brave men who served their country, fought and died during the Korean War. No names are listed that I could determine on this memorial. It is simply stated;

Korea
1950-1953

It is with the deepest respect and honour that I have included all the names inscribed on this cenotaph.
