Nõmme War of Independence memorial
Rahumäe Vabadussõja mälestussammas
In Rahumäe cemetery in Tallinn stands the Kalevlaste memorial to members of the Kalev sports society who fell in the War of Independence. It was unveiled on 31 May 1931, the 30th anniversary of the society's founding. In 1951, during the Soviet occupation, it was taken down, and the graves of the fallen, all but that of L. Tõnson, were mostly buried over with new graves. On 20 June 1997 an exact copy of the old monument was unveiled at roughly the same spot.

Tallinnas Rahumäe kalmistul seisab Kalevlaste mälestusmärk Vabadussõjas langenud spordiseltsi Kalev liikmetele. See avati 31. mail 1931, seltsi asutamise 30. aastapäeval. 1951. aastal, nõukogude okupatsiooni ajal, võeti sammas maha ja langenute hauad, välja arvatud L. Tõnsoni oma, maeti valdavalt üle. 20. juunil 1997 avati enam-vähem samas kohas vana samba täpne koopia.
