    Veterans Memorial - Category?

    I'm still new here, but am having a problem finding the correct category for an American Legion memorial "In memory and with gratitude to all those who served honorably in the military services of our country."

    I just posted two waymarks for police and firefighters memorials located in the same cemetery, but can't find the right category for this one.

    It's not for a specific war, a specific unit or person, nor is it located at a veteran cemetery, though there are many veterans buried there.  There has got to be a place for it.  No?

    What do you think?

    I would say the "Non-Specific Veteran Memorials".  I think that would best fit what you have there.

    Well, yeah, that sounds like a fit.  I simply didn't see it listed uner the general memorials category.  When I looked under "War", my brain only saw the specific wars and must have somehow blanked out on this category.  I see it now, though. 

    Thanks!

    PS - If anyone is interested, I'd think that the "United States Revolutionary War Memorials" category should be listed under "War" (possibly renamed "Wars") and the "Non-Specific Veteran Memorials" should be brought under the general Memorials headings like the "Specific Veteran Memorials" is.  Just a thought.
