1. Oregon Korean War Veterans Memorial
Inscription.
Dedicated to the memory of these men and women from Oregon so their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Oh, could our fallen brothers know the honor they helped bring to God, and to our country, to their memory now we sing.
You gave your lives for Freedom, for your families, and for friends, and for that you have our special love and a thanks that never ends.

If God gives grace to warriors serving in his holy name,
if a special place in Heaven waits for those, who in honor came,
then those who served with honor on that far Korean shore,
will have his grace and a special place when they stand at Heaven’s door.
Paul E. Sanders
