1. Lest We Forget Monument
This memorial is dedicated to all the men and women who served their country to preserve freedom in the world as soldiers, sailors, marines. air men and merchant marines from World War One to the present time. Many of these persons suffered great hardships. Some are still living with the wounds of their sacrifice while others paid the ultimate price... with their lives. In deference to these courageous servicemen and women, a moment of silence and/or a short prayer would be appreciated.
Erected by South Presque Isle Post, Post 7804, Posen, V.F.W.
