Missaukee County Veterans Memorial Park is dedicated to honoring the county’s men and women who served their country, emphasizing that soldiers secured freedoms such as freedom of the press, freedom of speech, and the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and that they served beneath the flag and were finally carried beneath it. The park explains that its plaques record each veteran’s name, branch, and discharge date, identifies branches ranging from the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force to reserve, guard, Merchant Marine, Women Airforce Service Pilots, and recognized military-related occupations, and presents extensive rolls of veterans from service eras spanning eighteen sixty-one through nineteen seventy-six and later, including two unknown soldiers from McBain.
