Inscription.

Dedicated To All Men and Women
Wounded in All Our Wars

Combat Wounded Veterans
Military Order of
the Purple Heart 1782 - 1932

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.
