Your Questions Answered: Wording for Dedication & Going Away Plaques
4) Quote
Writing a perfect wording for your dedication plaques does not always mean that you need to add a message. Sometimes, a simple quote is already ideal. It can be the favorite phrase or motto of the recipient or the department’s slogan.
Here are the sample slogans of the military department:
* Air Force
- Integrity First
- Service Before Self
- Excellence in All We Do (Unofficial)
* Army
- Army Strong
- Army of One
- Be all you can be
* Coast Guard
- Semper Paratus (Always Ready)
* Marines
- Semper Fi, Semper Fidelis (Always Faithful)
- Once A Marine, Always a Marine
- The Few, The Proud, The Marines
* Navy
- Fair Winds and Following Seas
- Honor, Courage, Commitment
- Non-Sibi Sed Patriel (Not for self, but country)
5) Complement
Complementing the person in the plaque is truly fantastic! You just need to express your gratitude and appreciation in words. Think of the best way to describe the person or organization. You can also write his most remarkable contribution.
One way of complementing the person is to write a 'sweet' message on his plaque that will remind him or her how much he or she means to you! That way you will know that the plaque will be displayed on his/her favorite table where he/she can see it more often.
For military memorial plaques, ideas on wording can be derived from the comrades’, family’s or friends’ description of the deceased person. If you’re close to that person, you can write something that you will remember about him or her.
