Oorlogsmonument Cave

(Nieuw Zeeland - Cave)

Dit monument herdenkt de inwoners van de distrikten Cave, Cannington en Moutakaika die hun leven voor hun land hebben gegeven in de Eerste en Tweede Wereldoorlog.

Tekst op het monument:
So long as the rocks endure and grass grows and water runs so long will this stone bear witness that through this low pass in the hills men from the Cave, Cannington and Moutakaika districts rode and walked on their way to the Great European War 1914-1918 and to World War II 1939-1945. Some of them have not returned but have left their mortal remains in foreign lands and strange seas that our British way of living may continue but their immortal souls have risen from the grave.

Hieronder staan de namen van de gesneuvelden.
