This old limestone arch has "Great War" and "1914 1918" carved in a ribbon on the top of the arch. On the inside of the arch, on both sides, are two carved plaques. This Arch was likely place soon after the Great War. Nine names from W.W. II (in a different type face) were obviously added at a later date as well a one name from the Korean War.
