Marker Text: There is no marker with text. Just names on the monument. Date of dedication: December 6, 2015 Who Put it Here?: American Legion Post 164 and the Queen City VFW Post 5860 Description of Memorial: I found this monument while looking for waymarks in this area. It is in a very scenic and historical area. From the monument website: The Spearfish Veterans Monument organization was conceived and developed as a joint effort of members of both the American Legion Post 164 and the Queen City VFW Post 5860. The joint committee envisioned a method by which Spearfish veterans of the Armed Forces of the US might be honored in perpetuity. With input from city planners, other veterans, construction and architectural professionals, they have designed a “living” monument to honor all men and women who have lived in Spearfish (57783 for at least one year) and have completed their term of service (or have been honorably discharged).
