Meade County Service

This is a memorial from Meade, Kansas. It was originally constructed by the American Legion in 1946-47 to recognize those men and women from Meade County, Kansas who had joined the armed forces during WWI and WWII. After the Korean conflict it was updated to include those individuals also. More names were added after Vietnam, and in the mid-1980's it was completely redone to include all other military conflicts. It is still updated to include currrent conflicts. One side is all WWI and WWII while the other side includes all other actions. Names are still added today for anyone entering the military. The material is large black tiles with names etched into them. We are proud of the men and women who have chosen to serve the military from Meade County, Kansas.
