The Story of the Chain
A granite base, rough cut undone reminds us that no conflict is won, and incomplete is this memorial of war, until all souls missing are accounted for.
A chain of iron forever binds their uncertain fate to our seeking minds, to we the living, in our hearts must remain. The tool to finish, and the linking chain.
This flag someday, to the center set. These chains removed. This granite etched. May this be the goal of all who set their feet upon this memorial, now incomplete.
