Deux autres bas-reliefs sur le même monument relatent chacun un épisode de cette guerre où les soldats canadiens sont mis en valeur : à la bataille de Paarleberg, au moment où les Boers se rendent à l'infanterie canadienne, et à la bataille de Komati River, au moment où l'artillerie canadienne s'empare des fusils ennemis.
