We reflect with deep gratitude on the members of the Fort Henry Guard from 1938 to 1940 who served with the Canadian Armed Forces during the Second World War. We share this Honour Roll in remembrance of those who sacrificed for our country, including those who gave their lives in service. All their names remain here, engraved on this plaque in Fort Henry’s Parade Square as a lasting reminder that our history is shaped by people who showed extraordinary courage. Today, we pause to reflect on the selfless sacrifices of all veterans. Please join us in a moment of silent reflection for the heroes who made our peaceful moments possible.
