A whopping 24 people correctly answered last week’s “Somewhere over the …” from longtime Florence reader Barry Wingard. It showed a rainbow over part of the Florence Veterans Park.
Noted David Lupo of Mount Pleasant: “It’s the Eagle Monument by sculptor Alex Palkovich, who was born in an area that became part of Ukraine. The three pillars, only two of which are visible in the photo, represent the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marines. (It was erected before the establishment of the Space Corps.)”
