Take a photo of your rally flag and motorcycle with the above image.*
A granite and bronze monument, it was erected and dedicated in 2007 as an addition to the Veterans Plaza in Overton Park. The memorial is quite extensive with a number of plaques, the seals of each of the armed forces, and images displayed on bronze plaques.
The main plaque is located in the center of the memorial, providing statistics on the Korean Conflict and lists the 20 deadliest battles of the war. The other four sections of the memorial detail historical facts of each year of the war.
Also in the area: For another fun and spirited Tennessee ride, ride east 108 miles to Savannah to pick up SR 203. Head 33 miles east to Collinwood where it ends at the Natchez Trace Parkway. Rolling terrain, twisties and elevation changes make this a fun diversion.
So many good places to eat in Memphis: Tom's BBQ, Uncle Lou's Fried Chicken, Marlowe's, and Leonard's to name just a few.
