The missing are commemorated on the Loos Memorial.[14] On 13 October 2006, a memorial was unveiled, to commemorate the officers and men of the 46th (North Midland) Division who became casualties, on the 91st anniversary of the final assault. The memorial was designed by Michael Credland in the form of an octagonal broken column of Portland stone, 46 in (1,2 m) high, with two tiers of steps forming the base. The broken column signifies the loss of the head of the family and the loss of an army column. The angle of cut at the top of the column is 46° and the pitch of the steps is the same angle. An inscription "Their Country Found Them Ready", is carved on the top step of the Memorial and was chosen by Martin Middlebrook, from the song Keep the Home Fires Burning, composed by Ivor Novello in 1915.[15]
