AUSTIN Texas Land Commissioner and Veterans Land Board (VLB) Chairwoman Dr. Dawn Buckingham announced Friday the War Memorial Donation Campaign for the Texas State Veterans Cemetery at Abilene. The new stone memorials will accompany the cemetery’s new Vietnam War Memorial and commemorate World War II, the Korean War, and the Persian Gulf War.

The War Memorials will be seven feet wide by six feet tall and cost $8,750 each, including the cost of the stone and the construction of its base. This campaign will remain open until all funds are raised.
