Discription:
Large, two-sided highly reflective black memorial with white lettering. The front side reads, “Dedicated to the American Merchant Seamen who, in times of national crisis, have rallied to battle enemy mines, submarines, and planes while building a ‘steel bridge’ of supplies across the seas to our troops and their allies. In World War II there were 731 merchant ships sunk by enemy action with 6,839 merchant mariners and over 1,800 Navy ArmedGuard killed or missing from relatively small forces. May their Supreme Being Bless, Care for, and Comfort them! High-Rollers Chapter American Merchant Marine Veterans.” A separate display piece, mounted on the top of the memorial itself, is another part of the main memorial, showing a depiction of a Merchant Marine vessel. The back of the main memorial reads, “AMMV High-Rollers in Remembrance.” It then lists the names of High-Roller members who have passed.
