Island X-1 Davisville -- an organization of retired Seabees, part of the Seabee Veterans of America conceived and raised the funds for a permanent memorial to Seabees at the Rhode Island Veteran's Cemetery, 301 South County Trail, Exeter, Rhode Island (the completed memorial is shown above).
Frank Iafrate assisted in the design of this Seabee Memorial, which also includes -- on the sides -- the emblems of the Civil Engineer Corps and the United States Marine Corps.
The Cemetery is 8 miles (15 minutes drive time) from the Seabees Museum & Memorial Park at Davisville.
