A female figure in high relief dominates Roslindale’s World War I Memorial. She holds a palm of victory in her right hand, and against her left side she holds the sheathed sword of peace. She stands against a vertical granite shaft twelve feet high. The shaft is backed by a horizontal granite block nineteen feet long, bearing on its face the inscription: “Roslindale honors its victorious sons and daughters in World War I. In the glory of their youth we shall remember them.”

This monument is surely one of the last World War I memorials to be erected in the United States, if not the last. The sculptor Henry Albert Atkins created a design for a monument shortly after the war, but it was not erected because of insufficient funds. However, the money that had been raised for Atkins’ monument remained in a bank account, where it sat untouched for over thirty years until Frederick Davis, a local businessman, discovered the forgotten sum. Davis became the main proponent to resurrect the WWI Memorial project. He chaired a community committee, which held a new design competition won by Gordon Carr. The monument was dedicated in 1959, and Roslindale finally had its World War I Memorial. Carr’s design bears some similarities to at least one sculpture by Henry Albert Atkins, so it is possible that Carr was familiar with Atkins’ work. Allegorical depictions of Peace are featured on several other Boston-area monuments as well.

This veterans' cemetery (actually composed of 25 separate cemeteries) is located just outside Roslyn, WA and contains a memorial for those "who made the supreme sacrifice" during WW1. Machine guns originally stood where the flower pots are in the above photo, but they were stolen in the 1990s. The photo gallery contains closeups of the memorial, a photo of the cemetery in general, and a photo of a board showing historical information about the cemetery.

Set near a group of benches, this bronze WWI soldier stands, holding a rifle by his right side. He wears high-laced boots, a multi-pocketed jacket, and helmet and a shoulder bag slung over his left shoulder. It was sculpted by R. Rogers Aston and honors those who served in WWI and those alumni of the New Mexico Military Acad­emy who lost their lives in that war. It was placed here in 1985.

In this corner of Pioneer Park, at the corner of 6th and "E" streets, in downtown San Bernardino are the combined commemoration memorials of all wars the U.S. fought in. But, specifically, a memorial to honor the fallen soldiers of WW1 who were from San Bernardino sits prominently to the west of the two large Civil War canon and the main monument, the "Soldiers and Sailors Monument", which had been dedicated in April 1916, the year before the U.S. entered WW1, and is dedicated to the soldiers and sailors who lost their lives in four different wars: the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, the Spanish American War and the Mexican War of 1847 when California became a part of the United States.

 A 100th anniversary rededication and replacement event took place on April 16, 2016 to mark the centennial, and re-dedication of the main towering granite monument, capped by a standing Union soldier, and to replace two World War I plaques that were stolen the previous year. The World War I plaques were dedicated to the memory of twenty-two young San Bernardino men who gave their lives in World War 1.
After thieves stole the Bronze plaques, local citizens, and the San Bernardino Historical and Pioneer Society raised the funds to replace the monuments with all an new slab of engraved black granite.

"First set aside as a park in 1890 and dedicated in 1921, tiny Memorial Park overlooks the harbor at the base of Spring Street, and honors San Juan Islands U.S. Army and Navy servicemen who fought in World War I. One of the first such monuments in Washington State, this little green space honors nine men, some of whom had been buried where they fell in Europe. For their families and the tight-knit community of Friday Harbor, Memorial Park became sacred ground.”
The four sides of the monument, which originally was a fountain, exhibit the Army Infantry Crossed Rifles, Army Artillery’s Crossed Cannons, the Shield of the Navy and the Emblem of the Marine Corps.
