John Cowgill: Stories of the Railroad

There is something special about the small towns in the United States of America. Sadly, small towns are not visited as often as the big cities and beach towns, but many of the small towns have something special. Many small towns have memorials to those who have served in the military. One of them is the town of Welch in the southern region of the U.S. state of West Virginia. Although many veterans memorials are in the town center, the memorial in Welch is outside the town where all of the main routes meet. Just like many other memorials dedicated to the military, it makes you reflect and think of those who gave their lives so that we could live ours. If you are in the area of Welch, West Virginia, take the time to stop at the veterans memorial.
