The names listed in the Amendments 370B and 370C are not random. They include senior commanders and public figures whose leadership and service are commemorated because of their national significance in saving this country, from Field Marshal Viscount Montgomery of Alamein, and Field Marshal Viscount Alanbrooke, the General Field Marshal Viscount Slim of Burma, who led the Forgotten Army, the Women of World War II Memorial, the Battle of Britain Monument, the Iraq and Afghanistan Memorial, the Chindit Memorial and others. These are modern memorials but historical remembrances for those who served in difficult theatres. Finally, the statues in Parliament Square, of David Lloyd George, Benjamin Disraeli, Palmerston, Jan Smuts, Clement Attlee and Baroness Thatcher, are of figures whose public service should also be protected.
