Inscription. To honor the memory of all of the veterans who have served in the armed forces of this great nation. In war and in peace they have placed themselves in harm's way to serve a cause greater than themselves, ensuring that the freedom we hold dear and the values we all share shall prevail.

Dedicated to veterans past, present and future, by the people of this area, in gratitude and respect.

"The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war, no matter how justified, shall be directly proportional as to how they perceive the veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their nation." - George Washington
