Memorial reads: WESTBROOK HONORS HER SONS AND DAUGHTERS WHO STROVE BY THEIR LOYALTY, SELF-SACRIFICE AND DEVOTION TO PRESERVE AND CEMENT THE UNION IN THE DAYS OF THE CIVIL WAR 1861-1865I visited this memorial on Tuesday, March 11th. It is located within Riverside Park on Main St. in Westbrook.
It is a tribute to all the men and women from Westbrook who fought in the Civil War.
OBSERVATIONS: I grew up in Westbrook, always knew that the statue existed, but never knew what it read. The war memorial itself is within the boundaries of Westbrook’s Riverside Park and has always and still is kept in pristine condition. It almost seems like someone comes out on a semi regular basis and shines the memorial.
