To all my fellow Veterans of all races and creeds, these stones speak for all of us and part of us are in these stones. The real heros all fell in action and they continue to fall in Iraq and Afghanistan. (USMC/Viet Nam)

The medals of honor awarded for the Wounded Knee Massacre should be thoroughly reviewed. There's nothing in any of the citations to warrant this great medal to the butchers that day. It dishonors those gallant warriors that truly earned it. Ho Hecetu

The monument is dedicated to the 32 Native American Recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor. It's located just 7 miles south of Samson, Alabama in the Flat Creek Community.

thank you for letting me know where it is. Some day I am going to take my grandkids to see this honor for natives. I have personally know medal of honor recipients and they are so special but as always, they say the real hero's died.
