Today’s walk took me to a very interesting island that is dedicated to
veterans. It was created from the spoils dredged the bottom of the ICW. At the
time, several veterans suggested that an artificial island should be created as
a place to honor the veterans of our country. Veterans Island is a subdued
tribute to the men and their services that have given of their time and their
lives to our country. I thought that I’d bring you some pictures of the
monuments that honor the different branches of the services and of the
different wars that our country has fought in. It is a great place to take a
walk on a warm Fl morning and reflect upon those whom we have depended so much. I
realize that the pictures don’t show the monuments very well but the overall
effect of the island and its simple monuments contributed to its impact as a memorial.
