- Worth noticing
- Portraits are grouped by home region; the site distinguishes photographs restored from originals from imagined portraits.
Field notes
The member list is divided into regional groupings, from Waikato and Maniapoto through the Pacific Islands, and entries shown include service numbers. The site names a mix of archival and family sources for reconstructing individual stories. Its portrait note distinguishes restoration and colourisation from surviving photographs from imagined likenesses, which it says are identified on the relevant pages.
