Inscription.

This monument from the people of Glades County Florida is dedicated to the Men and Women who served honorably in all parts of the world to defend our nation’s freedom and preserve the dignity of the human spirit. It is beyond our capability to adequately recognize the sacrifices of those who served …But with God’s help we will never forget what they did for us and the unborn generations to follow.

In Honor of those who served. In Tribute to those who perished. In Gratitude to those now serving.
