Inscription

Plaque

This memorial is dedicated to the memory

of servicemen from the Bega area

who gave their lives in the service of their country

during World War II and in the Korean Conflict.

Though they may rest on distant shores

their names will live for evermore

Lest We forget

This wall replaces individual plaques originally placed at the foot of trees

in a memorial grove planted in this vicinity in 1953.
