A small Oklahoma town is trying to honor veterans in a big way. Hydro, near Weatherford, is trying to raise $30,000 for a granite veterans memorial. Hydro's population is fewer than 1,000, but more than 700 residents have served in the military since World War II. Hydro still has Memorial Day services with a color guard in both of the town's cemeteries. Hydro hopes to dedicate the memorial on Veterans Day later this year. For more information, and to make a donation, visit Hydro's Veterans Memorial website and its Facebook page. Checks can be made out to Hydro Vets Memorial and sent to Bank of Hydro, P.O. Box 7, Hydro, OK 73048.
