Inscription.

Dedicated in honor of the men and women
of our commmunities who served in the Armed
Forces of our country in all its wars
———————————————————
All Gave Some · Some Gave All

They went with songs to the battle, they were young
straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted
They fell with their faces to the [?]
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning,
we shall remember them

On this day May 27th 2013 the Sons of the American Legion Squad 616
dedicate this memorial to all the men and women who served in the
Armed Forces of the United States of America.

 
Erected by Knelly Podany American Legion Post 616 and Sons.
