As the eighth monument in the park, it stands as a powerful tribute to those who gave everything, even after returning home. With community members and officials in patriotic attire honoring the fallen at the Memorial Day unveiling, Talbot reminds everyone that freedom isn’t free — and remembering these unsung heroes is vital, especially in a city built on military legacy.
