Attention all Veterans, Families, and Friends
Please continue to submit names of all veterans who have lived in Winneshiek County at some point in their lives and are not already identified on our current veteran listing. The cutoff for engraving this year's veteran names has ended - names will be engraved in time for this year's Veteran Day.  All future names received will be listed on the 2024 Veteran's Day Engraving List page with a cutoff of September 15, 2024.  We respectfully request a $100 donation to cover our cost for the engraving service.  Thank you and God Bless the USA!

Veterans who are still living are harder to find, as privacy laws protect them. We can only find them if they volunteer their information.
