Geocache Description:

A small cache in the parks surrounding Kelvingrove Galley.

My Grandfather served with the Cameronians in World War 2, and spent much of the war as a POW. This monument remembers all those members of the Cameronians who gave their lives for their country.

This bronze memorial was unveiled in August 1924 to commemorate members of the Cameronians who fell in the First World War. In 1947 the inscription was include a commemoration of those who died in the Second World War, and in 1968 a tablet was added to mark the disbandment of the regiment.

The sculpture depicts a sergeant "advancing over the top", symbolising Victory. On his right is the dead body of a young officer, symbolising Sacrifice. A Lewis gunner covers the advancing troops with gunfire and, in the words of the artist, shows the "determination to succeed... for which our men were so remarkable".
