The Soldiers and Sailors Monument, representing liberty and peace, stands in recognition of local veterans; it is Newtown's enduring tribute to those who have served to protect the nation in the armed forces. This week, American flags surrounded the base of the monument, placed there by members of Newtown Woman's Club, GFWC in time for the Memorial Day weekend.  (Bobowick photo)
