Recipients of the Purple Heart

Dedicated to the Recipients of the

Nations oldest military decoration

The Purple Heart

Combat Veterans Wounded

1782 Military Order of

The Purple Heart 1932

My stone is red for

The blood they shed.

The Medal I bear

is my country's way

to show they care.

If I could be seen

by all mankind

maybe peace will

come in my lifetime.

We few, we happy few, we band of brother's.

For he today who sheds his blood with me,

shall be my brother

Marker is on Tomlinson Avenue north of 7th Street, on the left when traveling north.
