Inscription on bronze plaque inset in stone chimney:

1914 A.D. 1929 1918
ERECTED BY ROBINSON POST No. 81
THE AMERICAN LEGION
DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF THOSE WHO
SERVED THEIR COUNTRY DURING THE WORLD WAR

This American Legion Post and a Veterans Of Foreign Wars Post still meet in Potlatch.
It appears this building was also used, at one time, as a roadhouse, Carter’s Log Inn.
A call to the Post Commander indicated that the Legion and VFW still own this historic
log building, which strongly resembles the American Legion Post in Filmore, UT, also
built with logs from Idaho.

This plaque, located in front of the flagpole on the west side of the property, honors all Ormond men who fought for our country in the First World War and serves as a loving remembrance of the three who made the ultimate sacrifice.

In grateful remembrance of
“Our Boys”
who answered their Country's call
in the World War Apr. 6. 1917-Nov. 11. 1918

When the service flag has faded, and the hands that it caressed have been folded calm and peaceful on each Mother's loving breast, then the torch they passed unto us, we will bear forever on. With our lives we will defend it, we like they will carry on.

Figure of a World War I infantryman advancing through the stumps of No Man's Land. He holds a rifle in his proper left hand and his proper right hand is upraised. The bayonet has been removed from the sculpture

John Pauling sculpted "Over the Top" to depict an infantryman advancing on the battlefield. The bronze sculpture was made by the American Art Bronze Foundry of Chicago and mounted on rainbow granite from St. Cloud, MN with a dedication in 1927. The bronze panels below the sculpture list 1018 names of Richland County citizens who served. Those who perished during the war are noted with a star opposite their names. Located on the courthouse lawn.

The first two photos depict a bronze tablet dedicated to the war dead from the University of Montana. The tablet, attached to a boulder, lists 21 names; it was dedicated in 1925. The memorial is situated near the university's "Memorial Row" -- two columns of evergreen trees planted in 1919 to commemorate 32 individuals connected with the university who died in service. 

The doughboy sculpture also became the county's World War II memorial (through the addition to the base of plaques listing the names of those killed in WWII)

Over the Top to Victory 

100 Cities / 100 Memorials

Dedicated by the American Legion Auxiliary on November 11, 1927 to honor the 39 local men who died in the Great War, this 9’ statue is a cast bronze of a uniformed soldier with an open right hand raised in a forward motion and the left hand holding a rifle. A bronze plaque with the names of Missoula County citizens who died in WWI is situated on the granite base. The plaque reads: ERECTED BY THE AUXILIARY OF THE AMERICAN LEGION
IN HONOR OF THE MEN OF MISSOULA COUNTY WHO MADE THE SUPREME SACRIFICE DURING THE WORLD WAR.  On the other sides of the monument are bronze plaques honoring the Missoula County service members who died in World War II; these plaques were dedicated in 1948.

This doughboy statue was originally dedicated on Armistice Day, November 11, 1929 and is located in Memorial Park, Wheaton, Illinois.

This is a monument, dedicated on May 30, 1920, to the 1,385 men of Craighead County who served in the U.S. Armed Forces in World War I.  On the east and west faces of the marble base are a list of the 18 who died in service.  The painted bronze and steel sculpture was sculpted by Chicago, IL artist John Paulding, and depicts a WWI soldier in mid-stride, holding a bayonet above his head.  In his other hand he holds a rifle parallel to the ground.  Originally the bayonet was attached to the rifle, but after annual disappearances, it was moved and welded to the upright hand.  The monument is also a tribute to those who died in World War II and the Korean and Vietnam Wars.

Sculpted by John Paulding, "Over-The-Top!" sits outside the Craighead County Courthouse.

The dates on this memorial are very telling. Many US citizens went to Britain and France to join their flying forces against the Central Powers. The United States entered the war in 1917, and the American Flying Corps was developed. So, while Americans served in the burgeoning 'Air Force', the plaque can only honor service from 1917-1918.
