THEY WHOM THIS MEMORIAL
COMMEMORATES WERE NUMBERED
AMONG THOSE WHO AT THE CALL
OF KING AND COUNTRY LEFT
ALL THAT WAS DEAR TO THEM
ENDURED HARDNESS FACED
DANGERS AND FINALLY PASSED
OUT OF THE SIGHT OF MEN BY
THE PATH OF DUTY AND SELF
SACRIFICE GIVING UP THEIR OWN
LIVES THAT OTHERS MIGHT LIVE
IN FREEDOM

LET THOSE WHO COME AFTER
SEE TO IT THAT THEIR NAMES
ARE NOT FORGOTTEN.
