the images shown on that website. I have up the old vero imagery of that island. it is as they show. there was always a sanctuary there but nothing like this. no flag. lets see. you should be able to see it.The Veterans Memorial Island Sanctuary plaque's writing was well considered in the process. Nice touch.

note the old barber bridge is shown. the island with the bridge to it is the veteran's island.
