   Coat of arms of George the Fifth of Great Britain  

  Honi soit qui mal y pense

  
  

  Dieu et mon Droit

  He whom this scroll commemorates

  was numbered among those who,

  at the call of King and Country, left all

  that was dear to them, endured hardness,

  faced danger, 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 his name be not forgotten.

  Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry

  Killed in action, France and Flanders. 25/9/15
