Cross of Sacrifice - Seaford Cemetery - East Sussex

Cross of Sacrifice - Seaford Cemetery - East Sussex
I have recreated the two inscriptions, as I could not get all the lettering in a readable condition from the photographs that I took.
The cemetery has numerous individual military graves of soldiers and sailors who died in the nearby camp and in Newhaven Military Hospital.
Many of those interred here are from the Canadian Armed Forces of WW1. A couple of miles away, at Cuckmere Haven, there is a less formal, but nevertheless very poignant, memorial to Canadian troops who were killed in their camp at the spot, by German aircraft, in WW2.
