In July 1967, the 25th anniversary of 'Kokoda', members of the 25th Australian Infantry Brigade Association provided a fence to enclose the Memorial. In November 1990, an additional plaque was fixed to the Memorial in recognition of the support given by the local community, the Ianari clan of Sogeri.

Main plaque reads: In memory of the Officers, NCOs & men of the Australian Military Forces

who gave their lives on the Kokoda Track Jul-Nov 1942 - “To strive, to seek, to find & not to yield”

Ianari plaque reads: In recognition of the support of The Ianari Clan of Sogeri to this memorial which commemorates the sacrifice of those members of the Australian Army and the people of Papua New Guinea who gave their lives on the Kokoda Track July – November 1942 - Erected by the Australian Government on the 48th anniversary of the battle, November 1990
