Some Gave All

Some Gave All is one of a series of our blogs which are basically photographic in nature. The main blog, the "hub", is Holscher's Hub, which is a general photo site. The general blog that we have that receives the most viewing attention is Lex Anteinternet, which started off, and which also remains, a blog for the study of historical topics of the 1890-1920 time frame, but which also deals with about everything else. Our daily Wyoming history blog is Today In Wyoming's History.

We also have four specific photograph blogs with dedicated topics, those being Churches of the West, Courthouses of the West, Railhead and Painted Bricks. Those blogs are dedicated to photographs of the topics their title indicates (more or less). This blog, while a history minded one, fits into the latter category. It depicts monuments, mostly war memorials, that we've run across in our travels.

Many of these photos, indeed probably all of them, were taken as the opportunity arose. It'd be rare here to find a photo in which we had gone out specifically to photograph the memorial. Because of that, they will not have a professional quality, as we have to take the monument, including the light, weather, and other conditions, as we find them. Still, that serves the purpose, which is to record monuments and memorials that otherwise would likely be missed by most people.
