This is the reverse side of the plaque. As you can see on the top of the photo, there are metal pieces that could have been hinges or for magnetic closures. I'm not sure what the numbers represent, other than a zip code for Florida. Sadly someone put some masking tape on it with Patrick's name.

As historian for the family, I was gifted this plaque. It measures roughly 8 x 8 x 1/4 inches. Hand carved and painted. The glass in the center is screwed in place with flathead or slotted screws. The wood used, I'm presuming, would have been scrap wood. There are numbers on the back and what looks like what would have been metal tabs for magnetic closures.

BERGEN-OP-ZOOM CANADIAN WAR CEMETERY Netherlands
BERGEN-OP-ZOOM CANADIAN WAR CEMETERY is located 39 Km north west of Antwerp and 19 Km after passing the Border into the Netherlands. The N11 connects Antwerp to Bergen op Zoom via Kapellen, Pulte, Hoogerheide and finally on to Bergen op Zoom.

Follow this road for 500 M where it becomes Wouwsestraatweg and carry straight on for 2.5 kilometres. The street name has now changed to the Ruytershoveweg and the BERGEN-OP-ZOOM CANADIAN WAR CEMETERY can be found on the left of this street. Steps into cemetery (not suitable for wheelchairs).
