There is a remarkable black granite three sided monument dedicated to the men of Morgan County, Indiana who gave their lives in 20th century wars. Starting with the French and Indian Wars up to and including the War on Terrorism, this monument speaks to the ultimate sacrifices made throughout the centuries. The honors are flanked by Old Glory, Indiana’s State Flag, and the black POW*MIA flag.
The Memorial is located in small plaza across street from the courthouse in downtown Martinsville, Indiana. I could not find a date of dedication, , the first reference I found was 2009.

I particularly like the simple, final, sculpture

Thanks, Derrick. That type of monument became very popular and distributed in many places post-Viet Nam. The rifle with fixed bayonet pointing into the ground symbolizes a fallen soldier in battle, the boots represent the final march of the last battle, and the helmet is something the soldier has no further need for.
