Restoring the World War I memorial

LAST FALL, the World War memorial plaque on the Veterans Memorial Common was removed from the old boulder it had been mounted to for many decades. Recently, it was restored like new and mounted on a piece of Barre, Vermont granite similar to the World War II monument.

The newly restored memorial will be rededicated on Memorial Day.
