Three for every service man memorial tree plan
The Chicago Tribune proposes planting a memorial tree for each World War service member along national highways. Trees would bear the service member’s name and organization, with notes for the dead, and spots at major intersections on the Lincoln and Dixie Highways. The plan invites broad federal and state support and honors veterans associations and families. It estimates about 1.75 million trees to cover 3,305 miles of Lincoln Highway and 2,000 miles of Dixie Highway, celebrating sacrifice and aiding reforestation.
