Veterans deserve better



Editor, The Transcript:

I would like to express my disappointment for the location of the very past due, memorial to the veterans of Norman and Cleveland County.

I feel that our veterans deserve a real place of honor near the center of Norman, rather than a spot south of Reaves Park. A life-size statue of James Garner stands on Main Street alongside reminders of early Norman.

Then, today (July 27) I read about the historical plaques that are being placed at the corner of Main Street and Peters Avenue that tell of early day Norman.

I wish someone would find space near the center of Norman that would give our veterans the honor they deserve. It appears to me that the City of Norman does not really care about the men and women who served our country, some giving their lives.
