1. Combat Wounded Veterans Marker
Dedicated to all men and women wounded in all our wars
My stone is red for
the blood they shed.
The medal I bear
is my country's way
to show they care.
If I could be seen
by all mankind
maybe peace will
come in my lifetime.
Erected by American Legion Post #29, Aux., & S.A.L.
