LCpl Jordan C. Haerter Veterans Memorial Bridge

The monument dedicated to him will sit at the base of the bridge at the end of Main Street.

Sunrise from the bridge

We also have just been told that a patio and fountain area will be dedicated in Jordan's honor at the FISHER HOUSE at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington DC. Fisher House allows families of wounded troops to reside in a homelike atmosphere while their loved ones go through rehabilitation.

That looks like a beautiful bridge, an excellent tribute. Sounds like the fountain at Walter Reed will be very special. They don't do those things for just anyone. A true testament to the character of your son and his unselfish service to his country. I commend both of you, Axe. Well done from a veteran and a father who can only fathom wether my sons will follow in my footsteps or not.

That's Awesome. Recognition of the sacrifice doesn't make up for the loss, but it can help temper it a little.

Well deserved. I salute your son and you.
