Constructed in June, 1947, in memory of the Millet and District.

The cenotaph was originally built in June of 1947 by Legion Members of Millet Branch #229 under the direction of founding president, Gerry Scott. It was located at the corner of 52nd Street and 47th Avenue where the Legion Hall was on leased land. The cenotaph was a square tapered structure made of stone with two pillars in front of it.

When the land lease expired, the Legion found a new home for its hall but the monument was moved to 52nd Street and 50th Avenue which, today, is a vacant lot. Upon moving the cenotaph, great damage was done and a similar cenotaph was built of wood covered with rock slices. Throughout the years, the cenotaph was a gathering place for Remembrance Day services. Today, services are held indoors due to aging veterans. The cenotaph was placed on this site in 1973, departed from the Legion Hall. A lack of pillars is the only difference between this cenotaph and the original. A plaque on the cenotaph has the following inscription:

"IN MEMORY OF THE MEN OF MILLET AND DISTRICT WHO MADE THE SUPREME SACRIFICE IN THE WORLD WARS 1914-1918, 1939-1945 THEIR NAMES LIVETH FOREVER"

The cost of maintaining the cenotaph has been very good, with only occasional masonry work. The Millet Legion burned to the ground on April 7, 1997, with new plans set to rebuild on the lot where the cenotaph sits, once again united.

All records of events and history of the cenotaph were lost in the fire with other artifacts collected from veteranss. More information is being discovered, but in the meantime, all the legion members have left for memories is the cenotaph.
