To honor Honor

A new Medal of Honor Monument was dedicated today at The University of Washington in Seattle

The UW will dedicate a memorial to military veterans, specifically the seven UW alumni who have received the Congressional Medal of Honor. The memorial will be built in the traffic circle at the south end of Memorial Way, north of the main UW flagpole and east of Parrington Hall

I was unable to attend the ceremony but was in town later in the day so I took a few minutes at the end of my day to get a few pictures, It’s a very nice thing.

The monument is at the north end of “Red Square” so I took a moment to get a few pictures there too.
