Originally named Liberty Memorial High School, it was completed in 1923 as a monument to the Lawrence High School students and graduates whose died in service during World War I. Of the 300 Lawrence youth who served, 144 hadn't yet graduated from high school. This number includes the two high school girls who died while serving as nurses.

The auditorium of the school was planned as a memorial hall. It includes stained glass windows made in Belgium representing various regiments of some fallen students. The most striking image to me is the large inscription of a Rudyard Kipling poem, adorning the wall over the stage. All that they had they gave - they gave - in sure and single faith. There can be no knowledge reach the grave To make them grudge their death Save only they understood That, after all was done We the redeemed denied their blood And mocked the gains it won.

All student assemblies, plays, concerts, etc are held in this auditorium. My own children attended middle school here, and it was always a sobering reminder of the children who were lost in service.

Located at the National World War I Museum and Memorial in Kansas City, Missouri, the Liberty Memorial is a memorial to service men and women who served in World War I. It is a National Historic Landmark and associated with the National World War I Museum located nearby.

From the Encyclopedia of Cleveland History:

Liberty Row was dedicated on Memorial Day 1919 to honor Cleveland-area soldiers who had died during World War I. The memorial consisted of a series of oak trees planted from Gordon Park on Lake Erie into Shaker Heights. The trees stretched along the then newly renamed Liberty Blvd. (formerly the Lower East Blvd., and after 1981, part of Martin Luther King, Jr., Dr.) through Gordon, Rockefeller, and Wade parks, up Ambler Dr. into Cleveland Heights, and then along North Park into Shaker Heights. A round bronze plaque bearing the name of a dead serviceman was placed in front of each tree. A number of  the trees remained standing (particularly along North Park) into the 2010s and new plantings were replacing lost trees along Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive in 2017. However, a number of the name plaques had been destroyed or stolen by vandals over the years.

Lincoln Cemetery War Memorial

Lincoln Cemetery in Cook County, Il, was founded in 1911 and is noteworthy for the number of famous African-American Chicagoans buried there.

“In Sacred Memory of the Men of Lincoln County Who Made the Supreme Sacrifice” Woodmen of the World Memorial.  WW1 - Iraq War.

There are three Military Remembrance features on the front
lawn of the county courthouse. Two are pictured here, the
third is a granite Korean War Memorial bench.
The oldest monument was dedicated on Memorial Day, May
30, 1971 by The American Legion Posts of Lincoln County.
It honors “…Those Who Served…” and “…Those Who Gave
Their Lives…”.
The Black Granite Memorial Monument better fulfills the goals
of the VFW and Legion as it’s the duty of those military service
members who return from war and those who serve to maintain
the peace, to always remember the names of all of those who
Made The Supreme Sacrifice In Defense Of Liberty.

Riverfront Park is home to several monuments honoring servicemembers of Lincoln County. The centerpiece of the memorial area is a granite monument on a foundation of donated bricks. Each side of the monument is inscribed with the founding date and Latin motto of each branch of the US Armed Forces, such as the featured photo's "Haec Protegimus" ("This We'll Defend") for the Army. The monument is also topped with a life-size bronze sculpture created by a local artist and designed to represent the memorial's motto: "Continue the Fight, Leave No One Behind."

Three granite stelae and an inscribed bench make up this memo­rial, sculpted by Jerry Lail and dedicated in 1983. On the central stele is an eagle and 13 names of the Lincoln County residents who died in WWI, and the 94 who died in WWII. On the second stele are 16 names of dead from the Vietnam War, and on the other are 11 names from the Korean War, Grenada and Lebanon. The bench is dedicated to all war dead.

Ground for the monument was broken on November 15th, 1926 on what was called then "Hay Scales Lot". Over 200 school children and many citizens of the town participated, accorded to Dr. Fellows' "History of Lincoln". Evidently it didn't take long to construct the monument, because that next spring, May 29th to be exact, the town held a Memorial Day service and dedication at the monument that afternoon. Maine's Governor Ralph Brewster was on hand to give the dedication speech. The Hon. William T. Gardiner presented the monument to the town, and it was unveiled by Lincoln area Civil War veterans. The 5th Infantry Band played music, there were prayers and speeches, and a benediction was given by a Rev. Mullin. How many people attended the ceremony is not recorded, but we can assume many if not most area citizens attended, as was the custom back then for these types of things.

And since another world-wide conflict was not anticipated, it was simply called the World War Memorial. Today, it is more commonly called the "doughboy" statue after the nickname given to American soldiers in World War 1. It now faces out West Broadway instead of toward Main Street.

A large bronze eagle with outstretched wings perches atop a granite boulder. It was produced at the foundry of T.F. McGann & Sons Company, and was dedicated on November 11, 1929, to honor Lincoln's citizens who died in wars from the Revolutionary War through WWI. A plaque added later has the names of those who died during WWII and the Korean War.

The inscription on the George A. Lippi/Joseph F. Smith Memorial reads:

In Memory
of
George A. Lippi
and Joseph F. Smith
First World War

This is an E.M. Viquesney Spirit of the American Doughboy, dedicated on November 11, 1928 in front of the old Logan County Courthouse.
