LISTING OF NAMES is legible in photo
The monument is a tryptich-style polished granite piece which seems to be recently constructed. There is a grassy area in front of it with sidewalk specifically for the monument. A flag protrudes from the middle and military medallions are at the base. The memorial stands in front of a municipal garage a few yards from Rt. 19, directly across the street from the Sheakleyville Presbyterian Church. I'd recommend parking at the church when visiting the monument.
