Veterans Memorial Park in Toms River, NJ

 

After years of driving past Veterans Memorial Park in Toms River, Bill and I finally decided it was time to visit and take a few photos.


The center of attention is a "Greatest Generation" WW II soldier being carried off the battlefield on the shoulders of an Iraq/Afghanistan veteran. 

 On the right you see a WW I Doughboy.  To the left you see a Viet Nam era soldier.

                                             This bronze statue is an unarmed combat nurse.

The statue on the left is a Korean War veteran using a walkie-talkie.  Being so close to Veterans Day, I thought it was about time for a visit to see these beautiful bronze statues in honor of all our veterans,
