All graves are identical and have the details like Name of Soldier,Regiment number and emblem, the emblem of the religion and a personal epitaph.
This is the uniformity and order being followed by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC in United Kingdom) which commemorates the 1,700,000 men and women of the Commonwealth forces who died in the two world wars.These cemeteries may have different entrance arches, layouts and pergolas but two things stay the same across the world- the Cross of Sacrifice and Stone Remembrance, both made of Portland cement stone.
