Constructed in memory of the 14^th Canadian Hussars and its 8^th Reconnaissance Regiment (14 CH).

At the entrance of the Recreation Centre (the old Armories) stands a Sherman battle tank, dedicated to the members of Swift Current's 14^th Canadian Hussars and its 8^th Reconnaissance Regiment (14 CH). On Monday, May 8, 1995, on the 50^th anniversary of VE Day and as a part of "Canada Remembers" in Swift Current, this tank with its new bronze plaque was re-dedicated. The plaque was purchased by a local "Canada Remembers" committee with approximately $500.00 donated by the (14 CH) Last Reunion Fund. The ceremony was attended by Legion Comrades Eldon Kirbyson (left) and Dr. Nobled Irwin (right), who were both second World War veterans of the 8^th Reconnaissance Regiment (14 CH).

During the battle on D-Day, Lt. Irwin was wounded. Wireless Operator Eldon Kirbyson drove Lt. Irwin and others to a first aid station near Caen, France. The driver did not realize he was aggravating the others wounds as he drove. At the time, neither of the veterans knew each other!
