The silver salver is housed at the Swift Current Museum. "Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow. They fell with their faces to the foe. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. We will remember them."

Here is an interesting photo that perhaps some of you can shed some light upon. The only information we have is: early to mid 20th century; unidentified man in uniform (firefighter?) examining silver cans. The back of the photo says "Cent flask".
