Surry County War Memorial

Surry County honored its members of the Armed Forces who served in World War I and World War II, remembering those from the county who fought so that democracy, freedom, civilization, and the liberties of man might survive. Those who served in 1917–1918 were praised for bearing high the torch of freedom, keeping its flame alive in victory, and passing it to a later generation. Those who served in 1941–1945 were counted among those who took up the quarrel against the foes of freedom, carried freedom’s torch to victory over despotism and oppression, kept the faith, and rendered heroic service in behalf of mankind.
