Background
The Moore County Veteran's Memorial is a tribute to any Moore County resident who served our country in all branches of national service. Your donation will be used for the annual Veteran's Day ceremony and funding the addition of names for vets unable to cover the fee.
This memorial consists of two black granite slabs, each 3,000 pounds, on which the names of Moore County veterans killed in the past 100 years are inscribed beginning with World War I to the present. Completing the monument, three flag poles surround the centerpiece, the sculpted figure of an eagle resting atop a smooth stone base. The black granite pedestal of the centerpiece is inscribed with the five branches of the military. The flags flown include the U.S. flag, the North Carolina flag, and the Prisoner of War flag.
This Veterans Memorial is located near the intersection of NC Highway 24/27 and NC Highway 15-501 in Carthage, NC.
To have a service member's name added to the memorial or for further info contact Ruby Hendricks 910-245-7204.
