The AVV-VVK inscription stands for "Alles voor Vlaanderen, Vlaanderen voor Kristus" or "All for Flanders, Flanders for Christ". The lower inscription reads “Hier liggen hun lijken als zaden in ‘t zand / Hoop op den oogst O Vlaanderland” (Here lie their bodies like seeds in the sand / Hope for the harvest of Flanders). The outline of the seagull is the symbol of the Flemish Students’ Movement.
