EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative detail from the Australian 5th Division Memorial at Polygon Wood in Belgium pays tribute to the brave Australian soldiers who fought in the Battle of Polygon Wood during the First World War. The intricately carved plaque, adorned with the emblem of the Australian Infantry Forces, bears the names of over 2,400 Australian soldiers who lost their lives or went missing in action during the battle on September 26, 1917. The Battle of Polygon Wood was a significant engagement in the Third Battle of Ypres, also known as the Battle of Passchendaele. The Australian 5th Division, under the command of General John Monash, played a crucial role in the battle, capturing the German-held Polygon Wood and advancing towards the town of Passchendaele. The battle was marked by heavy casualties and grueling conditions, with soldiers enduring muddy terrain, heavy rain, and relentless enemy fire. The memorial, unveiled in 1927, stands as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the Australian forces during the First World War. The intricate detail of the plaque, with its meticulously carved names and emblem, serves as a testament to the dedication and honor of those who served and fell in the line of duty. The memorial continues to draw visitors from around the world, who come to pay their respects and honor the memory of the brave Australian soldiers who fought and died in the Battle of Polygon Wood.
