WHITLEY COUNTY — A new war memorial in Whitley County is getting national attention for a spelling error.

The bench was supposed to read “War on Terrorism,” but an extra “i” was accidentally engraved in it. The mistake has since been covered up with tape.

The project coordinator said that the company who made the bench plans to fix the typo or replace the bench.

The memorial will be officially dedicated on Veterans Day this year.
