The picturesque Kohima War
Cemetery, a symbolic memorial commemorating the memories of the officers and men
who sacrificed their lives during World War II is a must visit. Well maintained by
the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, and steeped in tranquility, it is embellished by
two tall crosses gainst the backdrop of seasonal roses and lush grass. The gentle hill
where the cemetery is located is embellished by stone markers with shining bronze plaques,
each one commemorating the name of the men who sacrificed their lives.
The famous inscription written on the War
Memorial stone reads:
When you go home
Tell them of us and say,
For your tomorrow, we gave our today.
