Regarding the criteria for inclusion on the memorial, there is information here:

This also links to further information.
I did send a long report to Allison, our Town Clerk, regarding criteria and the current list of names that were requested, asking her to put this before the Committee. I understand that there was quite a debate at that meeting, regarding inclusion of names on the War Memorial. I am awaiting a reply to a letter I wrote to Allison on 29 April, requesting information regarding the debate, the reasons why the names should have been declined, and a copy of the documentation that was given to the Committee when they were debating the matter.
The DWMP is totally voluntary, and while Simon and I fund much of the work personally, we do depend on donations and the support of others to continue. Cllr Cowan is a supporter, and that support has enabled us to continue parts of our work in Remembrance of all our Dovorian Fallen that otherwise we would have been unable to do.
Views are always welcome, and if anyone should wish to contact us directly, the details are on Dover's Virtual Memorial, address below.
