On the bronze plaque:
THANKS BE TO GOD WHO GIVETH US THE VICTORY
in ever grateful memory of the brave men from folkestone,
and the many thousands from all parts of the empire who passed this spot on their way
to fight in the great war (1914-1918) for righteousness and freedom, and especially those
of this town who made the supreme sacrifice, and whose names are here recorded,
this memorial is humbly dedicated

this memorial also commemorates
those members of the armed services
who lost their lives during
the second world war 1939-1945
and the many civilian inhabitants of
