Dunn reportedly unveiled the monument’s plaque, which reads: “Dedicated to the men of Delaware County for their valiant service in Vietnam.”
It also contains part of a quote from Wendell Willkie: “Freedom is an indivisible word. If we want to enjoy it, and fight for it, we must be prepared to extend it to everyone…” There was no indication of who commissioned the monument or why it was located in a bank parking lot on Route 202. That bank eventually became a Sovereign Bank and it was there in 2012 when Steve Quigley, of Concord Towing, rediscovered it while cleaning out some brush.
