Description of Memorial:
This memorial is located within Powland Veterans Memorial Park, a smaller park, but containing many other memorials and monuments, both old and new, that encompass every major war fought. This park gives the impression that a few of these war memorials existed elsewhere in the City of Reno and have been relocated to this park as a collective group for visitors to admire and appreciate those who have served our country.
