Remembering Our Fallen Exhibit

6/28/2026
9:00am to 6:00pm
Veterans Memorial Museum

A very emotional exhibit, Remembering our Fallen will soon be displayed at the Veterans Memorial Museum in Shenandoah, to remind Americans of the ultimate sacrifice made by those who died from wounds suffered in Iraq and Afghanistan while wearing our country's uniform.     The memorial includes 35 Tribute Towers with military and personal photos of 5,473 of our nation's military Fallen from 9/11/2001 to 8/30/2021.  This Memorial was unveiled nationally at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. in late 2017, and has traveled to over 150 cities in 35 states since that time.  This is the final year for the memorial to tour America, as it will be retired on December 31, 2026, to rest permanently at a place yet to be determined.     This national memorial also includes Tribute Towers that recognize our servicemen and women who died from training accidents or attacks while stationed stateside or on overseas bases.  Those who return from war with the invisible wounds of Post-Traumatic Stress and succumb to suicide are also included to recognize the tragedy of PTS.
