Gambler and I visited the Grand River Veterans Memorial in Markesan, WI. This is the town where I grew up. My dad was a Vietnam Veteran so I went there to visit his brick and to remember all those who have fallen. That statue used to be in a park right next to my house where I would go often and play and I was fascinated with that statue and would just stare at it. I’m so glad they moved it and put it in this special memorial.
