CASPER, Wyo. The Casper American Legion is proposing moving an existing memorial for Wyoming’s fallen soldiers from its current location along the North Platte River Trail west of the Tate Pumphouse.
Casper Parks and Recreation Director Tim Cortez told the Casper City Council on Tuesday that the legion would like to construct a larger memorial at the Patterson-Zonta Park at the intersection of 12th Street and Wyoming Boulevard across from Fort Caspar Museum.
