About
This war memorial is a cement-rendered wall, painted a light purple. It is decorated on the front with the words 'Lest we forget', in gold lettering. Below this are five military emblems, representing the Australian Army, Royal Australian Navy, Royal Australian Air Force, Merchant Navy, and Australian Women's Services. On the back of the wall are the names of various conflicts in which Australia has been involved, from the Second World War onwards. The wall stands on concrete paving and is surrounded by grass. Five flagpoles are positioned behind it and six flood lights illuminate the area at night. The wall was dedicated in May 2006 (Camden Haven Courier, 2 May 2006). It is located in Laurie Memorial Park, adjacent to the Laurieton Anzac War Memorial. The park is used for various commemorative services throughout the year.
