defending their nation. Soldiers
of all faiths are united by their
love of country, but they not
united by the cross. "
Adrian Gardner, general counsel of the MNCPPC, said in an
interview following the decision:
" Our planning board took a courageous stand. Part of our original
reason for being [a park and planning commission] is our preservation purpose. Our case was strong.
This cross was not built with a religious purpose in mind. " He went
on to emphasize what was a crucial point in their defense about
the original intent of historic memorials and monuments and how
perceptions of their meaning can
change over time. " I kept telling
people 'Remember the Alamo.'

That historic site was originally a
Catholic church and is now operated by the National Park Service
as a National Historic Monument.
Today it has a new meaning. Symbols can change over time and
serve other purposes. "
Perhaps, that is why many communities will fight to keep crosses
in their original historic location
and context. The Mount Soledad
cross is another large Latin cross
built atop the highest point of a hill
with a commanding, spectacular
view of the city of San Diego and
surrounding landscape. The original cross dated from 1913, but the
most recent cross, a large stucco
cross that's 29 feet tall, was erected
in 1954 to honor Korean War veterans. It sat not in a park, but on

land owned by the Department of
Defense. After 25 years of continuous litigation, the parties to the
suit agreed to a resolution in which
the cross and the immediate land
around it were sold to a private
nonprofit foundation, while the
surrounding land became Soledad
Natural Park of the City of San
Diego. Access to the memorial is
through the park.
The fate of a large wooden cross
at the top of Black Rock Mountain,
elevation 3,000 feet, in rural Rabun
County in northeastern Georgia,
became a matter of fierce civic
pride after the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) sued because
it was located in the middle of a
state park campground. " It united
