It wasn't part of our itinerary, but on one vacation we made an unscheduled stop in the town of Roswell, Georgia. Came across one of the classier memorials we've seen that was gifted to the town by the Roswell Vietnam War Memorial Committee to honor those who served. One soldier emerging from the faces reached out to a child as the future generation. it was explained as 'His legacy and ours.'

Very nice. All gave some. Some gave all.

Too many. Too often. Dogman, thanks for looking, and your kind offering.

Even though I am a Canadian, I can relate to this memorial as many of our own soldiers have paid the ultimate price for our freedom, I will go see this one myself and thank the lord and these soldiers for the honor of remembering them in this way.
Thanks again to our military for all they do for us.

Here, here, minopat. While this is a local memorial, the message and sacrifices are universal. If you go, it is easy to locate on the grounds right behind town hall in an intimate setting to quietly absorb it all. Happy New Year.
