This 3 ring binder contains 300 of the 1642 photos of 48th Highlanders who died in service to Canada. The binder is on a stand and above it is a brass plaque with two 48th Highlanders badges and between them  the words:

48th Highlanders of Canada        Killed in Action       “We will remember them”

Photos come from various sources including  family, newspaper obituaries, cemetery postings and 48th Highlander photos in the museum. The museum’s goal is a photo for every Highlander who died in service.
