Temple of the Winds is usually a classical four sided structure to the four winds. odd I can't think of any memorial like that.
What about the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne? It has a Sun Stone (Stone of Remembrance) that illuminates on the 11th hour of the 11th month.
Ha! Got it! Stonehenge Memorial, Klicktat County Veterans Memorial and Maryhill Town Site Built as the nation’s first World War I Memorial, Stonehenge lies at what was the original Maryhill town site. Believing the original in Great Britain was used for sacrifices, Hill constructed the replica in honor of the war dead of Klickitat County. Hill wanted the Memorial to serve as a reminder that “humanity is still being sacrificed to the god of war.” Nearby The Klickitat County Veterans Memorial was erected in 1995 to honor those who have died in the service of their country since World War I. The project was a partnership between Maryhill Museum and the Klickitat County Veterans Association. The site is also the location of Hill’s historic Maryhill town site, the remains of which can still be seen today. Here Hill planned to establish the heart of his Quaker Farming Community. Several buildings that once existed at the site, including the famous Meadowlark Inn, burned in 1958. Stonehenge Memorial

The Mother If you should die, think only this of me In that still quietness where is space for thought, Where parting, loss and bloodshed shall not be, And men may rest themselves and dream of nought: That in some place a mystic mile away One whom you loved has drained the bitter cup Till there is nought to drink; has faced the day Once more, and now, has raised the standard up. And think, my son, with eyes grown clear and dry She lives as though for ever in your sight, Loving the things you loved, with heart aglow For country, honour, truth, traditions high, - Proud that you paid their price. (And if some night Her heart should break - well, lad, you will not know.) May Herschel-Clarke
