The wooden honour roll commemorates employees of the Australia Paper Mill who served in World War Two.  It lists 224 names.

A.P.P.M. employees, accompanied by their families, yesterday paid a tribute to ex-service colleagues and employees of the company who died on active service. Many attended the official unveiling of the honor roll at the Services Building. The roll, which has been placed on the wall in the entrance hall of the Services Building, is a beautifully figured walnut panel containing the names of 218 employees in gold lettering. ln the centre is a bronze plaque with the names of seven employees who died on service. A bronze wreath surmounts the panel.
