New York XXX

One more set of pics submitted by Mike Minnick. These, too, are from the site at Mt. Morris which is about 60 miles, more or less, due east of Buffalo.

Please check out my other posts from Mt Morris here and here.

Mt. Morris is a small town, less than 5,000 in the 2010 census, once more testifying to my ongoing astonishment as to what small towns are capable of doing to honor their veterans.


Reflecting a common theme at these and truthfully most veterans sites, this wall welcomes all who visit.

Each of our numerous involvements is honored here.


Note the dates on the Vietnam marker, omitting eight years of our efforts.

A final reminder to those who may have never served which is, actually, about 98% of the Nation.

Check back on Thursday for a Thanksgiving wish to all.

To see additional memorials to those who served, from New York, or any other state, please click on a state on the left side of this page.

If you are following along at all, you will have seen that a number of you, like Mike Minnick, have responded to my request to send me memorials you have seen in your area or where you may have traveled. These submissions help expand the knowledge of how we have remembered the men and women who served or were lost in 'Nam and you help to honor them. If you have any such photos, I would love to see them. Please send them along to the email at the left and I will gladly share them here.
