Today's theme was "Forgotten". This monument stands on Veterans Memorial Parkway in East Providence, Rhode Island. It commemorates a four canon fort that once stood on a hill just across the parkway. Built in 1775, the fort was used to protect Providence Harbor (which no longer exists) from the British during the American Revolution. Few remember that a fort once stood on this site, and even fewer recall the role Rhode Island played in the Revolution.
