Mountain View Cemetery is home to a veterans memorial plaque and flag pole to remember all veterans who've fought in all wars protecting our freedoms.
The flag pole memorial is located in the heart of the cemetery and the flag pole has one US Flag and one POW flag flying proudly. There is a plaque imbedded on top of a brick structure as well as an American Legion metal emblem monumented on the front of the brick structure. The memorial also has a light pole next to it that I'm assuming lights up the flag pole at night.
The metal plaque says the following:
FLAG FLYING

VETERANS OF ALL WARS
