Advie War Memorial

 

The memorial was damaged beyond repair in 2006 and replaced in 2008.

 

The memorial has been moved to NJ 12506 34385, the position shown above is right on the main road so perhaps it was hit by a vehicle that would fit with the damage on the original which is in the cemetery (NJ 1418 3528).

 

There appears to be a church hall across the road from memorial.

 

LET US GIVE

OUR MOST HUMBLE

AND HEARTY THANKS

TO ALMIGHTY GOD

FOR HAVING GIVEN

US AND OUR ALLIES

THE VICTORY OVER

OUR ENEMIES

MAY WE REMEMBER

THAT THE SAFETY

OF OUR EMPIRE

IS NOT OWING TO

THE STRENGTH OF MAN

BUT TO THE POWER

OF GOD

GOD SAVE THE KING

AMEN

.

SONS OF THIS PLACE

LET THIS OF YOU

BE SAID

THAT YOU WHO LIVE ARE

WORTHY OF YOUR DEAD

THESE GAVE THEIR

LIVES THAT YOU

WHO LIVE MAY REAP

A RICHER HARVEST

ERE YOU FALL

ASLEEP
