Ce mémorial est un mémorial militaire mais cette formule "à ses fils glorieux ..." précédé du nom de la ville signifie que tous les soldats listés sont nés dans la ville.
En France, tous les monuments aux morts sont dressés par les villes, sur une place publique et sont accessibles librement.
Pour chaque commémoration d'une fin de guerre pour laquelle des soldats nés dans la ville sont morts, une cérémonie est organisée.
