The War Memorial on the Clinton Riverfront has become a focal point for all veterans with stone monuments, the main Bronze pictured in part above and the new concrete platform where it all is brought into focus. I can't help but read the names listed from all conflicts and remember my time in service to this country as well as my Fathers, Grandfathers and even Great Grandfathers. Thank you to all of our Veterans!

Dedication of the Freedom Rock for Clinton County

The members of American Legion Post 190 are shown in these photos paying respect and displaying Old Glory on Oct 15th at the newly unveiled Freedom Rock. The 18000 pound rock has scenes depicting Clinton County Astronauts, A Bald Eagle, The American Flag, WWII veterans, and the two Clinton County Medal of Honor Awardees.

On the right is Commander Ron Mussmann holding the American Flag and at the Podium is Clintons Mayor and Fellow American Legion Member Scott Madison

The picture on the Left is of the Medal Of Honor recipients from Clinton Iowa. This is just one side of the Freedom Rock!
Go see it for yourself!

Would You be interested in paying respect to our fallen Veterans? We could do this by forming a group of 6 minimum but up to 10 American Legion Post 190 members who would stand as a honor guard holding the American Flag at either side of the entrance to the funeral home when the casket carrying our fellow veteran is taken to its final resting place. This would require the Post 190 representatives to be dressed in our uniform shirts, Hats, black pants and black shoes-boots. We will look at providing jackets with the patches needed depending on cost! Please give me your thoughts!! Jim Manion
