The present-day Commonwealth War Graves Commission’s (CWGC) public prole relies on a constant reiteration of the controversial fundamental principles that were established by its founder, Sir Fabian Ware, in 1920. ‘The Commission’s Principles’, as they appear on the ‘Our Organisation’ page of their current website (April 2012), are listed as follows:Each of the dead should be commemorated by name on the grave or memorial. Headstones and memorials should be permanent. Headstones should be uniform. There should be no distinction made on account of military or civil rank, race or creed
