Ruston, Louisiana City Hall

People from Ruston who were killed in any war since World War I are listed on the Memorial Plaque. Lincoln Parish was formed after the Civil War. I like to ask "How come no one from Lincoln Parish served in the Civil War?" It is a trick question, of course, since there was no Lincoln Parish during the Civil War.

This display in front of the Ruston City Hall gives one an idea how veterans are regarded in this community.
