Royal Canadian Engineers Dieppe Raid Memorial, Newhaven
This is one of three war memorials on War Memorial Green, Newhaven, East Sussex. The inscription reads:
LEST WE FORGET
TO THE MEMORY OF THE
MEMBERS OF THE CORPS OF
ROYAL CANADIAN ENGINEERS
WHO LOST THEIR LIVES
IN THE RAID ON DIEPPE
FRANCE - 19TH AUGUST 1942
NEWHAVEN WAS AN
EMBARKATION POINT
and then goes on to list those who died. I did photograph these, but as can be seen above, the mottled stone and gilded lettering together do not make for easy reading. If anyone wants to see the lower area I shall be pleased to either upload it or send jpegs to them.

It will be easiest if I email the jpegs to you. You can reach me at philsutters@googlemail.com I have had a look at them and if one magnifies them, the inscriptions are pretty clear. Should any not be clear enough, I would be very happy to take further photos. I shall be in Newhaven on Saturday, but I only live a few miles away so can return easily at any time.
This area has strong connections with the Canadian forces serving here in both world wars, so I am very pleased to help. There are at least two graves of Canadian Officers from WW1, in our town cemetery at Seaford. I will add photos to the RCE memorial ones.
Best wishes
Phil
