"Commemoration is another kind of service. It is about remembering those who came before and inspiring those who come next."

This week on Story Behind the Stone, we speak with Jay Singh-Sohal, active reservist, veteran, Chairman of the World War I Sikh Memorial,  Trustee of The Commonwealth War Graves Foundation, about representation, remembrance, and the power of storytelling.

From Birmingham to Burma, Jay shares how his personal journey led to a global mission honouring Sikh and Commonwealth contributions, challenging historical gaps, and helping future generations connect with service and sacrifice.

 In this episode:

• Learn how the WWI Sikh Memorial in England is reshaping remembrance
• Hear about the African Labour Corps Memorial and the movement to correct non-commemoration
• Discover why diversity in service brings strength, insight, and innovation
