In August of 2016, this memorial in front of the Armory, was dedicated to all those who served in the U.S. Armed Forces. A dedication ceremony was offered by the local American Legion Post. Wagoner's Mayor, Albert Jones, said "This monument is dedicated to all service members. Each one signed their lives over to the United of America."
The monument is a black granite obelisk with an engraving of an American flag in color and the words "Thank you for your service." Beneath this is an engraving of a uniformed serviceman. On the back of the monument are listed all those Wagoner businesses and resident whose donations made this possible.
