Description
A memorial to those who were imprisoned when fighting for Australia
This memorial is dwarfed by a much larger memorial about 50 metres away. It is sobering to to think of the suffering incurred by those imprisoned during their service for Australia.
To log a find on this virtual, please take a photo of the memorial and add it to your found log.
Enjoy another of the lesser known memorials within Kings Park.

Mrs jinta and I had some spare time today so we set off to find some GCA caches! We headed to this area and hopped from one cache to the next with no real set plan but kept following the GPSR... this cache was one we grabbed while passing by. Cheers for placing this one. jinta29

Took a pic of this one while at the flagstack event in Kings Park on the weekend. Remembered there was a virtual here as we walked past so stopped for a quick pic. TFTVC.

Due to the number of caches to log I have resorted to boiler plate logs, sorry. Arrived in Perth on 8th August 2016 and I had my lap top with me to log our finds with any necessary photos but due to an oversight left my 4G modem at home and the free WI-Fi at the place we are staying is very slow and times out much to fast. We collected our hire car and drove straight to Kings Park. The weather was overcast and drizzly. We spent about 5 hours up here and we walked to every cache leaving the car where we parked it. This was our tenth cache for the morning. Took the required photo after reading any plaque associated with the object. We were amazed at the many different types of memorials up here.
