IRON RANGE VETERANS MEMORIAL
VIRGINIA, MN
Iron Range Veterans Memorial is a tribute to the military veterans of Minnesota's Iron Range region. The memorial is located in Olcott Park, Virginia, Minnesota, and was dedicated on Memorial Day in 1994. The centerpiece of the memorial is a bronze sculpture of a soldier in full combat gear, standing atop a granite pedestal. The soldier is depicted with his rifle in hand and his head bowed, paying homage to his fallen comrades.
The memorial is surrounded by six granite pillars, each representing one of the six branches of the U.S. Armed Forces – Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marines. Each pillar is adorned with the insignia of the respective branch, and a plaque with the names of local veterans who served in that branch.
The memorial also includes a brick pathway inscribed with the names of local veterans, and a granite monument dedicated to prisoners of war and those missing in action. The monument features a bronze plaque depicting the iconic image of a soldier's helmet resting on a rifle, with a pair of boots placed next to it.
The Iron Range Veterans Memorial serves as a solemn reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of the Iron Range who served their country in times of war and peace. It is a place of reflection and honor, and a fitting tribute to the bravery and dedication of our nation's military veterans.
