War Memorial

Bristol, Connecticut

The statue stands at the entrance to a city park. The bronze plaque reads:

“To perpetuate the memory of the citizens of Bristol who served in the war with Spain, Philippine Insurrection and China Relief Expedition, 1898-1902. Dedicated Sept. 14, 1929.”

Interesting how 80 years will change the general view of historical events.
