Reverse description The reverse presents an emotionally charged commemorative scene evoking the grief of wartime bereavement. To the left, a distraught elderly woman is depicted with her hands raised to her face in tears. To the right, a military cemetery is rendered in the lower portion of the field, with rows of graves stretching into the background. In the upper right, a portrait photograph of a fallen soldier is shown, while the centre of the design features a reproduction of an official wartime telegram from the Air Ministry conveying notification of the soldier's death in action over Germany. A partial transcription of the telegram text appears as the reverse legend, rendered in small Latin lettering around and within the central design.
