Veterans Memorials; Hadley, New York
This photograph, taken in August 1994, shows the second of two curved brick walls in a small grassy expanse in Hadley, New York. The first structure honors veterans of the World Wars, and this one is dedicated to those who served in Korea and Vietnam.
The polished black inlay bears the inscription: "Dedicated to all those who served for God and country." At left, the Korean War is represented by a map of Korea and a small graphic of an era serviceman; at right the Vietnam War is portrayed by the engraved reproduction of the Three Servicemen statue which stands on the grounds of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C.
