This Veterans Memorial is located in Muskegon, Michigan within Veterans Memorial Park. Veterans Memorial Park is a lowland park containing a lagoon and island with several war memorials. A large fountain anchors the south end of the park with a Vietnam Memorial proudly occupies the north end. The park is easily viewed while traveling north and south along the Causeway. The Veteran’s organization graciously constructed a concrete walkway throughout the park, along which lay bronze plaques, purchased by individuals to commemorate loved ones who have served in the armed forces.
