veteran memorial
War heroes' tribute
A veteran memorial is a monument, structure, or designated space honoring those who served in a nation's armed forces.
These range from simple plaques to elaborate complexes like the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C.
Most communities have at least one, often featuring names of local servicemembers: The town dedicated a new veteran memorial on the courthouse lawn.
