Second Lieutenant Sydney Elphick Sanders' name is listed along with 41 of his comrades in arms on the Cambrai Memorial, Louverval, Nord, France shown left.

It commemorates more than 7,000 servicemen of the United Kingdom and South Africa who died in the Battle of Cambrai in November and December 1917 and whose graves are not known. This represents approx 40% of those who lost their lives.

At the entrance is the following inscription in English and French:

TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND TO THE ENDURING MEMORY OF 7048 OFFICERS AND MEN OF THE FORCES OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE WHO FELL AT THE BATTLE OF CAMBRAI BETWEEN THE 20TH. NOVEMBER AND THE 3RD. DECEMBER 1917, WHOSE NAMES ARE HERE RECORDED BUT TO WHOM THE FORTUNES OF WAR DENIED THE KNOWN AND HONOURED BURIAL GIVEN TO THEIR COMRADES IN DEATH

The Memorial was designed by H Chalton Bradshaw with sculpture by C S Jagger and stands on a terrace at one end of the Louverval Military Cemetery. The chateau at Louverval, was taken by the 56th Australian Infantry Battalion at dawn on the 2nd of April, 1917. The hamlet stayed in Allied hands until the 51st (Highland) Division was driven from it on the 21st of March, 1918, during the massive German Offensive, and it was recaptured in the following September.

Parts of Rows B and C of the cemetery were built between April and December 1917 and in 1927, graves were brought in from Louverval Chateau Cemetery, which had been begun by German troops in March 1918 and used by Commonwealth forces in September and October 1918. The cemetery now contains 124 First World War burials.
