The next room of the Museum breaks the chronological pattern, and is our Hall of Honour where the Museum displays complete sets of medals awarded to an individual entrusted to the Museum. The Museum has a large collection of Military Decorations, mainly focused on Canadian, British Empire and Commonwealth awards dating from the 18 th Century to the present day. Our highest award currently on display is the Order of the British Empire which was awarded to Col. Galloway, located in the center of the picture above.
In our Hall of Honour, visitors may view any set of medals that have been entrusted to the Museum by a veteran or their family. The Museum is honoured to receive the medals of any veteran for addition to the Hall of Honour. If you have a set of Medals that you wish to donate to the Museum please click here to contact us and for more information.
Located just outside the Hall of Honour is the Museum display of the Memorial Cross or Silver Cross. These medals are awarded to wives and mothers of a soldiers killed in action. More recently this has been expanded to include male spouses of female members who are killed in action.
