- Description
- Stone of remembrance which is in a similar style to that of a CWGC gravestone. There is a Latin cross cut into the centre of the stone. In the centre of that cross is a bronze badge of the Cameron Highlanders which depicts the thistle with the Imperial Crown lying within a belt inscribed The Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders, which is superimposed on the Cross of St Andrew. Below the belt is a Sphinx commemorating the 1801 Campaign in Egypt. This crest is more usually identified with the 79th (Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders).
