In Memorium
"Dedicated to
those men who lost their lives
while serving under the command
of the 951st Field Artillery Battalion.
The loyalty and courage of these men
has been an inspiration for the men of the Battalion
to carry on in the highest traditions
of the United States Army."
from - Battalion History, Captain Ernest M Chamberlain
