Indiana says it's closing the Soldiers' and Sailors monument in downtown Indianapolis until November for repairs.
The Indiana Department of Administration announced Thursday that the centerpiece of Monument Circle is being fenced off starting
next Wednesday.
The agency says the purpose of the project is to repair the joints and connections of the bronze Victory statue that tops
the monument. It says crews also will repair the steel structural support for the statue, add support components and fix cracks
and water damage to the limestone eagles below the monument's observation deck.

I have been in training for a short time now but right off I can see that safety and quality are the number one issues, my experience as of late has been a positive one, the employees along with Jeff the plant manager and the operation supervisor as well as the engineers are a highly motivated group of people, what an asset for the area to have and for company's in need of a quality metal products.

While I understand the severity of their actions as well as everyones eagerness to hold them responsible for thier lost funds, these gentlemen did know how to make money. Dispite thier poor decisions over the ownership of Fair they had made several wise investments which paid them greatly. This proves they do have the potential to rebuild so they can repay. I do not feel they should live the life of luxuary but given an opportunity could they find ways of repaying the debts? They are doing nothing now but being a burden on tax payers. Just a thought!!!!!
