Fort Hunter Soldiers Honor Roll
Provided by Lisa K. Slaski
I recently received this message from Kim Downing a site visitor who, with the
help of her father, restored the Honor Roll in the summer of 1999 for her
Girl Scout Gold Award:
"When the monument was first established in the early 40s it was to honor
those who had served in WWI and II. Then in the 70s when it was restored they
added names of people who served in the Korean Conflict and the Vietnam War.
One other quick bit of information, the name in back was done so because at the
time the monument was originally put up, he was the only individual who was
deceased after returning home, but prior to the monument erection. Also the
name in blue, was at the time the only female on the board to have served. The
monument was created to honor those living in Ft. Hunter that went to war." - Kim Downing
