This photograph was taken on October 20, 1943, at Parc du Monument, today’s Parc des Madelinots, at the intersection of Wellington Street and LaSalle Boulevard.

Flags and a Harvard training aircraft were installed close to the Victory Memorial to support the fifth Victory Bonds fundraising campaign during the Second World War.
