The Blue Star Memorial Highway marker is located inside the beautifully landscaped Winkler County Veteran's Memorial on the southeast corner of the Winkler County Courthouse grounds. Specifically, the marker is installed at Texas State Highway 18 and S Winkler Street in downtown Kermit.
The Blue Stae marker had been here on the southeast corner of the courthouse grounds for many decades before the gorgeous Winkler County Veteran's memorial was erected. Blasterz are glad to see that the efforts of the Kermit Garden club from years ago was respected by including their Blue Star Marker in the new memorial design.
If any of the Garden Club ladies who secured the Blue Star marker are still with us, Blasterz are sure they would approve of the lovely flower beds and benches in the modern veterans memorial that has been in place for only a few years (as of 2014).
