My guess is that this older WWII memorial was located elsewhere in town and the plaque removed from its monumentation and relocated here within this park to look like the other, newer, memorial plaques here. This park is a nice tribute to all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms that we Americans enjoy today.
