Plaque Wording: In memory of the members of Operation Rimau In September 1944, when Singapore was under Japanese occupation, twenty-three British and Australian members of Services Reconnaissance Department / Z Special Unit travelled from Autralia by submarine to the outskirts of Singapore Harbour. Their mission was to attack and destroy enemy shipping from small submersible boats using magnetic limpet mines. The party included six former members of the highly successful raid launched against Japanese shipping in Singapore harbour in September 1943, code-named Operation Jaywick. They were intercepted by Japanese forces and in the actions that followed, thirteen were either killed in action or died of wounds. The remaining ten were captured and subsequently executed on 7 July 1945. The place of their execution is approximately 580 metres east of the junction of Clement and Dover Roads......we salute their daring and bravery.
