Those Of Us Who Have Survived Dedicate This Monument
To Our Fallen Comrades Who Have Given Their Last Full
Measure Of Devotion In A Sacred Cause.

"I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or ever eagle flew
And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God."
????????? ????????????????????? ????????????John Gillespie Magee, Jr.
