The Memorial is close to the south door of Shipdham church. 29 men are names on the WW1 side of the memorial and ten on the WW2 side. There is also a reference to The Fallen of 8th Bomber Command U.S.A.A.F. which must refer to the 8th U.S Army Air Force who were based at Shipdham airfield in WW2. http://www.geograph.org.uk/article/RAF-Shipdham---USAAF-Station-115
