Inscription

  • Merchant Navy
  • In wartime, merchant mariners have
    collectively faced constant danger and
    heavy losses to carry vital supplies
    and personnel across the oceans.
  • These plants depict the many
    crossings of our mariners, with yellow
    symbolizing the hope of our Allies.
  •  
  • Marince marchande
  • En temps de guerre, les marins
    marchands font fi d'un danger
    constant et de graves avaries pour
    transporter sur l'océan des fournitures
    de première nécessité et du
    personnel.
  • Ces plantes incarnent les nombreuses
    traversées de ces marins, le jaune
    symbolisant l'espoir de nos alliés.
