The park’s monuments pay tribute to the energy industry; the Oil Patch Warrior is dedicated to those Oklahomans who were instrumental in procuring American freedom by working in the energy industry during World War II. Secondly, the park is a memorial for the veterans who helped fight for the freedom Ardmore and the rest of the country enjoys today.
