In 1941-43, families in Chattahoochee and Muscogee Counties were forced from their homes and property during the Fort Benning expansion. The text identifies Abb. W. Preston and Ouida Preston among those affected and says these families were removed without just compensation or assistance, calling this a violation of the Fifth Amendment. It honors the Southern pride and spirit of people who suffered, endured, and survived this forced evacuation during a tragic period of world history.
