Veteran's Memorial, New Prague, Minnesota

Veteran's Memorial

The Veteran’s Memorial is located within the historic Memorial Park on the south side of State Highway 19 in New Prague. The memorial is two blocks to the east of the Ballinger Suite.

On November 18, 2012 the town of New Prague suffered a tragic loss of LCpl Dale W. Means: a 23-year-old Marine who was killed in action in Afghanistan. To honor him and all the other Veterans within the community the family of LCpl Means proposed a memorial to be placed within the town of New Prague. A unique fact: two New Prague MN perished at Pearl Harbor Dec 7, 1941.
