When you go home
Tell them of us and say
For your tomorrow
We gave our today
Memorial to the falllen of 2nd British Division, Battle of Kohima, 1944
Probably based on epitaph for the Spartan rearguard who held the pass of Thermopylae against the Persians in 480BC:
Tell it in Sparta, thou that passes by
Here, faithful to her charge, her soldiers lie
