Civil War Veterans Memorial IL352

A large monument commemorating the Civil War services and soldiers and sailors from Illinois stands in the center of Mound City National Cemetery. This at a cost of $25,000, was erected in 1874. The Hon. N.R. Casey, member of the Illinois Legislature, introduced the appropriation bill authorizing the monument, and Gov. John L. Beveridge appointed W.L. Hamilton, J.C. Willis and W.A. Looney as commissioners to direct the work of erecting the monument. By 1874, the number of unknown soldiers and sailors was as high as 2,637.

The inscription reads: "There are buried here 2,637 soldiers and sailors, names unknown, who lost their lives in defense of their country. Their services are here commemorated although their names are lost from the roll of honor."

"Known but to God" are the identities of 2,759 who rest in the hallowed ground of Mound City National Cemetery. Twenty-seven Confederates who died in the wartime hospitals of the area are also have honored sepulcher in this cemetery. Over the years since the great conflict of 1861-1865, this cemetery is the final resting place of veterans, their spouses and dependent children, from the Mexican War, Civil War, Spanish-American War, WWI, WWII, Korean, Vietnam and Persian Gulf. More than nine thousand interments have been made in Mound City National Cemetery since its establishment in 1864.




Marion Tower IL344

The plaques in this plaza are placed here in tribute to and bear the names of citizens of Williamson County who gave their lives while in the service of our country.

[A half dozen similar to bottom photo are at the "corners" of this circular plaza, which also saw Colonel John A. Logan's speech, and a vicious tornado. The veterans memorial brick walls cover those who served from Spanish American War, World War I, World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War as well as the Civil War.]

Pvt. Billie Gene Kanell MO252
Dedicated to the memory of
PVT. BILLIE GENE KANELL
35th Infantry Regiment
25th Infantry Division - Company I
Korean War
Awarded the
Congressional Medal Of Honor

* * * * * *
* * * * * * * *
And to all the servicemen
of Butler County Missouri
who made the supreme sacrifice
for Democracy.

President Harry Truman awarded the Medal of Honor, posthumously, to Private Billie Gene Kanell of Poplar Bluff, Mo.

“Billie Gene” was born June 26, 1931, in Poplar Bluff, the son of John and Iva Kanell. He was the second son in a family of nine children. His sister described him as the older brother who took care of the younger children, putting bandages on knees, checking bicycle tires and gently resolving youthful disagreements.

When the Korean War began in the summer of 1950, 19-year-old Billie Gene responded quickly to his nation’s call. He was trained as a rifleman, placed in the 25th Infantry and took ship to Korea. There was a brief pause in Hawaii where Private Kanell celebrated his 20th birthday. He was no longer a teenager.

Eleven days later, he was engaged in combat in Korea.
By September of 1951, there was especially hard fighting north of Seoul. On Sept. 7, Kanell and two comrades were in a bunker on Hill 717 which came under a severe attack. Enemy soldiers fought right up to their bunker – and a hand grenade landed at their feet.
Without hesitation, Kanell grabbed the grenade with both hands, pulled it tightly against his chest, and fell to the ground, taking the full forge of the explosion. Although terribly wounded and lying on the ground with fighting raging around him, he saw a second grenade land in the bunker.
With all of his remaining strength, he reached out and pulled the grenade in against his body as it exploded. It was an act of incredible self-sacrifice – which cost him his life but saved the lives of his friends.

For his actions, he received the Medal of Honor, our nation’s highest military recognition.
