After almost six years, ground was broken at the site of Las Vegas Veterans' Memorial. Veterans' Day, 2015 dawned cool, breezy and sunny in Las Vegas. Attended by a large crowd of citizens, active and ex-military personnel and hosted by Governor Brian Sandoval, this day was a long-awaited treat. With only a few of the eighteen, life-and-a-quarter scale figures remaining to finish, the event was doubly emotional as the end of this colossal project looms in site.
