Rotary sponsors Veterans Memorial Display

The display of the 8 memorial flags, US Flag, P.O.W./M.I.A, and from left to right: Army, Marine, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, and Coast Guard

A temporary Memorial was dedicated to the memorial veterans whose headstones at Jackson City Cemetery can no longer be read. The Memorial consists of U.S. Flag, P.O.W./M.I.A flags in the background and flags and wreaths for the six branches: Army, Marine, Navy, Air Force, Space Force and Coast Guard. In the middle is a poppy wreath and a statue of a soldier kneeling at the cross. Rotary Club of Southeast Missouri Service funded the costs to create this beautiful memorial display created by American Legion Post 158 member Art Wood.
