This brass plaque lists the names of those who served in WWII. There is no indication of where these men and women were from. It may be for the county, as Beech Bottom itself is very small. In addition to the plaque, there are flags flying from the four branches of the service, a POW-MIA flag, and above them all, Old Glory. In the background are the municipal buildings for the town. This monument cannot be missed by anyone passing thought this small town on the Ohio River.
