Apart from the British and Canadian men, some 80 New Zealand boys are buried here and also 180 Australians are resting here and are not forgotten. Besides the members of the New Zealand Delegation also the Australian Ambassador and military, Belgian military and local civil authorities attended. Prayers were said by the Chaplain of St. George's Memorial Church (Ypres)
