The World War One Honour Rolls are tall white marble 'tablets', embedded in the square brick pillars of the Commemorative Arch at Bendemeer War Memorial Park (on Memorial Drive). The plaque on the left-hand side pillar, when looking west, has the following inscription (tho I couldn't get some of my text to go vertical):
