Funston Monument
This monument, erected in December 1918, is dedicated to the men who trained at Camp Funston during World War I. Between the fall of 1917 and November 1918, approximately 50,000 soldiers received their basic training at this camp. These soldiers formed the 10th, 89th and part of the 92nd Division. General Leonard Wood, commander of this camp, ordered construction of this stone monument as a remembrance and tribute to their service and sacrifice.
Marker is on Huebner Road east of E Street, on the right when traveling east.
