The British Cyprus Memorial 2009

- In remembrance of the British servicemen who died in the 1955-1959 Cyprus Emergency -

Lest We Forget

To mark the 50th anniversary of the ending of the four-year conflict which preceded the independence of Cyprus in 1960, the British Cyprus Memorial Trust has been established to honour the memory of the 371 British servicemen who died during the course of that conflict with both a Roll of Honour Memorial Book and a permanent memorial bearing their names. Of the 371 dead, the Royal Navy and Royal Marines lost 28, the RAF 69 and the Army 274. The target date for completion of the double memorial is April 2009.
