The original monument lists those from the coal mining village of Herminie No. 2 who served in World War I and World War II. There is a later addition that lists others who served. It is obviously newer but does not specify when those listed served and in which conflict they served. There are also two women listed among the WW II veterans. Thank you to Karen Fasset, President, Fasset Manufacturing, Inc. for providing information on this monument.
