I used to take a lot of photos of odd signs. When #photosunday chose Words as the theme today, I looked through them to see what I had . . . and found a series of photos of a hawk sitting on a 43rd Infantry Division Memorial Highway sign in Newport Town at the intersection of Rte. 100 and Rte. 14. Lousy light at that time of day. The hawk was undisturbed by my presence. The 43rd served in the Pacific. "It was activated in 1920 as a National Guard Division in Connecticut, Maine, Rhode Island, and Vermont." (Wikipedia) More details can be found at Wikipedia and the Vermont National Guard. I am unable to find a resource that details this specific marker.
