Las Vegas Veterans' Memorial Groundbreaking by Marci Blumberg

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.
