Mount Gambier citizens took 12 years to unveil a memorial to the six men from the region who were Killed in Action during the Boer War. The description of the event from the Mount Gambier Border Watch speaks for itself. It is interesting reading up on the lives of the individual soldiers mentioned in the story. The Australians in the Boer War Oz-Boer Database Project is the best source for this as the web site is constantly updated from information supplied by many volunteers.
