Communist Expansion Is Challenged
The war to stop the expansion of Communism was fought in the jungles, mountains and rice paddies of South East Asia against an enemy that appeared friendly during the day only to be hostile at night. This memorial honors those American men and women that courageously fought for this just cause. It forever remembers those that lost their lives and those that are missing and may never return.

The United States Stands Against Communism World Wide
Lest We Forget
Let us not forget that the Cold War was a real war that stopped the Soviet Union and China and the spread of communism throughout the world with the loss of veteran's lives while on duty to their country, some in far away places with little recognition of their service. This memorial is dedicated to the honor of those Buffalo County veterans that lost their lives in this country's Cold War against communism.
