IN LOVING MEMORY OF
MAJOR TERENCE ANDREW
ALFRED WATT
LIFE GUARDS
BORN SEPTEMBER 13th 1906
KILLED WHILE FLYING ON ACTIVE SERVICE
JULY 17TH 1942
WHEN PICTURES LOOK ALIVE
WITH MOVEMENT FREE
WHEN SHIPS LIKE FISHES
SWIM BELOW THE SEA
WHEN MEN OUT STRIPPING BIRDS
CAN SCAN THE SKY
THEN HALF THE WORLD DEEP DRENCHED
IN BLOOD SHALL BE
