This two-sided memorial was created in 2006 to honor all local military veterans, dating back to the Revolutionary, Mexican and Civil Wars. One side faces the street with a detailed bas relief design, while the back side has over 550 engraved bricks with names, date and war served of every veteran from the Araphoe and surrounding area. Benches are provided for quiet reflection.
Also in the area: Across the street from the memorial is the Arapahoe Pharmacy, one of the few original working soda fountains in Nebraska. Try a cherry phosphate, a Black Cow Sundae, or a “real” Coca-Cola.
