The memorial will be built at the Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Randolph Center, Vt.
The memorial’s design plans were formally unveiled at a Nov. 11, 2009 Veterans’s Day event held at the cemetery. Vermont Gov. Jim Douglas and Gen. Thomas Drew (representing Vermont National Guard Adj. Gen. Michael Dubie, who oversees the cemetery), attended the event.
