The Legion Field of Honor

 

 

 

      Like a great sentinel stands the steel flagstaff in the Legion Field of Honor in Graceland Park Cemetery. The staff was erected and presented to Monahan Post by the Society of Plumbing and Heating Engineers of Sioux City. The entire space on which this staff stands was given to Monahan Post by the Graceland Park Cemetery Association to provide a burial space for ex-servicemen and women of Sioux City who in the future, pass away and are entitled by the provisions of the gift to be buried within its borders. Space for 144 graves are provided by this gift.
