Freedom is not free. Sometimes, it comes at a very high cost.

DEDICATED TO THE
MEN AND WOMEN OF CAMDEN, NJ |
|
While it
is true that there are monuments dedicated to some of the men and women
who gave of themselves for our country in WWII, I felt that there was a
need for far more than currently exists at the time. As of February
2002, I am aware of 3 stone monuments dedicated to various men from
Camden who died during the war years while in service. There also exists
a tribute on the a wall within City Hall, which unfortunately, is placed
so high on the wall and lighted so poorly that no one can really view it
or read the names on it. |
