Located in front of the Talent Town Hall is a World War II memorial comprised of a marble block monumented on a marble plinth. The monument reads:

The monument contains four illustrations around the names of those who served: a US Flag, an airplane to represent the Army Air Corps, a ship to represent the Navy, and a soldier hiding in some brush to represent the Army and Marines. The Town Hall that this monument resides in front of was formerly an elementary school. There's a flagpole nearby monumented by the local Lions Club that adds to the patriotic feeling in front of the building.
