The Memorial takes the form of a column fifteen metres high of travertine marble from Tivoli in the Sabine Hills near Rome, incised with a a light reticulated pattern and surmounted by a gilded bronze eagle two metres high. The column stands on a circular base around which the names are commemorated on bronze panels.

The bravery of the people of the island of Malta between the years 1940 - 1942 was honoured with the unique award of the George Cross.
