This monument was erected to the memory of the soldiers of the 10th Canadian Battalion and the 16th Canadian Scottish Battalion, killed during the nightattack at Kitchener’s Wood on April 22, 1915.
On a polished stone base stands a roughly worked stone representing the mutilated oaks of the forest.
On the stone is the inscription: “Kitchener’s Wood, 22 April 1915" which encircles an oak leaf with an acorn.
This “acorn on oakleaf” has become the insignia of the 10th and 16th Regiments and is worn on their epaulettes.
