Mission
The Madison County Veterans Memorial Board is chartered to develop, fund, facilitate, build and maintain a suitable memorial to honor the veterans who have served the United States by giving their time and, some ultimately, their lives in military service of their country. This Memorial will hold before present and future generations the principle that freedom is not free and that free people must always be prepared to defend that freedom at whatever cost. The design will:
- Inspire visitors and instill a sense of pride and respect for all veterans who have served in the United States military
- Provide an incentive to visitors to serve their country
- Be sufficiently interesting so as to educate visitors, especially the young, of the sacrifices those before them have made to guarantee a free America
- Recognize those veterans of Madison County who gave their lives in military service
- Recognize the Madison County recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor
