Veterans Memorial photo taken by Debra J.
Richardson, May 2005
The memorial is located at
the county courthouse in Waukon. Allamakee co. researcher Debra
J. Richardson attended the dedication and writes: "It
is so gorgeous words could not describe it. Breathtaking in
design, and so very moving to see the names of all those
soldiers. The floor of the monument is set with gray bricks
placed in front and inscribed with the names/military service of
Allamakee veterans." Debra took the
