This large plaque in memory of Antimony area veterans of both world wars is mounted on a large slab of granite standing on a concrete base. It was erected by the local LDS Bishopric and may only list the names of local Mormon veterans. Listed are eight veterans of World War One and forty-two from World War Two, three of them with a star preceeding their name, probably indicating that they were killed during the war. The Plaque reads:
1917 · [Large Eagle] · 1941
