In this park, Rothwell Park, there is a statue of Omar Bradley and A series of columns for an all encompassing memorial. Around these two memorial is a sidewalk and along it are stationed memorial to specific units and wars.
MP unit, World War I, Vietnam War, Korean War, Desert Storm and....this memorial.
I have never seen one like this, it covers the period of 1866-1916...but does not specifically name any conflicts.
During that period was the Indian Wars, the Spanish-American War, The Philippine-American War and, of course, The Reconstruction Period of the Civil War.
