Virginia XXIX

This beautiful memorial in Stafford, Virginia was dedicated in 2017 making it one of the newer memorials I've visited.

It, as so many do, commemorates and honors those from many wars, here, the Revolutionary War through the GWOT.

While some of the borders of the site are edged with stones honoring many, the initial corner, guarded by a gold eagle, is reserved for those who gave all.

Several of our comrades are included among the lost.

I did not choose this man for any particular reason, he was just the first of the few I came across.

This final shot, for today, is of the larger memorial and I promise to return to tell you more in a future post.

Next time, on the 10th, we will revisit Washington, so join me there, as always, at 9:00am.

To see additional memorials from Virginia, or any other state, please click the state name on the left side of this page.

I will ask, as I do at the end of nearly every post now, for anyone who has pictures of Vietnam memorials not seen here to please send them to me. I will give you full photo credit for the pic and any information about it you may know. Check your state, or anywhere you may have visited, from the list at the left, or any place else. Please send them to the email at the left or directly to me at Ldddad@comcast.net. Thanks!
