Tyndall Veterans Memorial Park
Location: 1003 Main St., Tyndall, SD 57066
On December 7, 1997, the 56th anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the local Tyndall American Legion and VFW posts conceived the idea of constructing a veterans memorial. After a few years of planning and fundraising, the memorial was completed in 2001. Tyndall Veterans Memorial Park honors nearly 1,200 local veterans on its granite monuments.
