Description / Background

The memorial consists of a central stone pillar, which is inscribed with a dedication to all those who have served. The insignia of the Royal Australian Navy (R.A.N.), Australian Army and Royal Australian Air Force (R.A.A.F.) are attached to the pillar, above the inscription. 

Standing behind the pillar is a matching pair of polished grey and white stone monuments, bearing an honour roll of those from the Krambach district who served in the Second World War. Inscribed at the top of each are the insignia of the R.A.N., Army, R.A.A.F. and Merchant Navy. 

All three pieces are positioned on a base made of blue tiles and pavers. They are located outside the Krambach Memorial Hall. The hall houses the Krambach First and Second World War Honour Roll, on which the names from this memorial also appear.
