S simple, yet beautiful, memorial
The Moore Count Veterans War Memorial, situated adjacent to the historic Moore Count Courthouse in Lynchburg, Tennessee, is a simple, yet beautiful, well-maintained memorial. Dedicated on 25 May 1882, the broken column represents the persons who have died and that all earthly ties with them are broken. The words "We cannot forget, we must not forget, we dare not forget" were inspired by a Lynchburg resident while "the last full measure of devotion" was said by President Abraham Lincoln on 19 November 1863, when he gave the Gettysburg Address.
