POW/MIA Tribute - Bosse Field in Evansville, Indiana from my Baseball Series.

POW/MIA Tribute at Bosse Field in Evansville, Indiana. Photographed by Photographer Ricky Davis of TRD Photography on Kodak Tri X Film.

Earlier this year I visited Historical Bosse Field in Evansville, Indiana. Bosse Field is the third oldest baseball stadium still in use in America. It’s the home of the Evansville Otters, an independent league team. It was also used in the filming of A League of their Own. I’ll be doing a blog post about Bosse Field overall soon for my baseball series.

I wanted to share this photo as one of my photos of the day however. When I was walking into the stadium to look around and take some photos one of the first things that caught my attention was this POW/MIA Tribute seat. It took me off guard as I’ve not seen that before but I thought this was such a great tribute and remembrance of our soldiers that never made it home from foreign wars. I’ve always been an avid reader about military history and especially reading about the POW’s in Vietnam, it was horrific. I just wanted to thank the Bosse Field officials for doing something like this to honor the sacrifice of these soldiers and also honoring the ones here at home that never got that closure.
