MCVM VIRTUAL REALITY TOUR

This video takes you through a fly-through Virtual Reality Tour of the proposed design for the Martin County Veterans Memorial.

PHASE I OF THE MEMORIAL

A 70 foot flag pole supporting a 25′ x 15′ U.S. flag, a red granite sign and an 80′ x 8′ black granite wall with the names of Martin County Veterans have been installed as of 2019. Additional names will be added annually.

PHASE II OF THE MEMORIAL

Phase II will see the creation of a secluded natural setting with areas for quiet reflection by granite benches and life-size bronze statues of military soldiers representing all past and current war eras. A Bell Cobra-Fixed Wing Attack Helicopter, AH-1-66-F-15327, has also been acquired by the committee and will be put on permanent display at the memorial site.

Big thank you goes out to MCVM board members Chuck Maday and Larry Juritec( sorry, I know I spelled your last name wrong) for installing the statue identification stones. They also took the silhouettes that we put out at the county fair to Wiederhoeft Welding to have the stands repaired and painted. Wiederhoeft Welding once again were very generous and did the repairs for our veterans for no charge. Another local business stepping up for our veterans. Thanks goes out to Sentence to Serve for weeding the Purple Heart garden. ... See MoreSee Less
