The Fremont County Veterans Service Office is taking orders to engrave the names of more veterans on the War Memorial Wall at the Fremont County Airport. Several more applications are needed before the next order is submitted to engrave the next 50 names on the wall.
The War Memorial Wall is for all honorably discharged veterans, living or deceased. Honored veterans can be local Fremont County residents or from outside of the area, even from states other than Colorado. Veterans honored on the wall can be from any branch of military service including the Coast Guard and the Merchant Marines.
Fremont County Veterans Service Officer Betty Hanawalt suggests that this is a perfect opportunity to honor a veteran in your family at Christmas time by arranging for a gift of an engraved brick in his or her name on the wall.
The Veterans Service Office will pay to have the names engraved of any person killed in action or missing in action who was a Fremont County resident at the time of their enlistment.
To fill out an application for an engraved brick on the War Memorial Wall stop at the Veterans Service Office in room LL-8 on the lower level of the Fremont County Administration Building or call the office at 276-7400. You will need to provide the name of the veteran, their rank, branch of service, period of service, and the $50 engraving fee.
