Large wooden Roll of Honour plaque bearing at the top a green plastic shield edged in white. The shield shows a yellow inverted boomerang with red lettering 'AATTV' above a brown crossbow. Beneath this is a yellow scroll bearing the motto 'PERSEVERE' in red. Underneath the shield is painted yellow lettering 'ROLL OF HONOUR 1962-1972'. Thirty-three small engraved brass plaques have been attached to the main plaque, each bearing the name, initials, rank and date of death of members of the Australian Army Training Team who died during service in South Vietnam. Gallantry decorations are also indicated if applicable. The engraving has been carried out at different times in different styles and the letters have been filled in with red.

The wooden foot, secured by a length of chain, was added in Australia in the 1980s to allow the plaque to be used at ceremonies held in the open.
