Porirua cemetery honours veterans
Telling the stories of some of the veterans at rest in Porirua Cemetery has become a lot easier.
Last month the council completed the installation of 16 QRS codes on distinctive red posts in the cemetery, off Kenepuru Dr. Visitors can scan the codes with their smartphone and it takes the user to the council cemeteries website, where they can read a little more about the person buried in that gravesite.
On the council website there is also the option to go to the Porirua War Stories website, run by historian Allan Dodson, which has more comprehensive profiles on each of the veterans.
