Indiana to place Gettysburg Memorial monument
Gettysburg project within weeks of final specifications for an Indiana State Memorial at Gettysburg National Military Park. Franklin De Moss of the Gettysburg Memorial Commission said the group, created by Indiana’s 1967 Legislature with a $20 000 appropriation, will bid the monument contract under state law.
