Dedication Opportunities

Legacy Trees

Honor a loved one by dedicating a tree on the museum grounds. Each tree includes a customized marker and becomes a living tribute to someone special. These trees serve as a living tribute to those who have sacrificed their lives for our freedom. Legacy Trees can be dedicated in honor of any patriot, living or deceased.  Additionally, a private dedication ceremony can be held for family and friends.

Memorial Benches

Throughout the museum and museum campus, benches are placed for visitors to rest for a moment and reflect on the legacy of the U.S. Army Infantryman. There are wooden benches inside and black cast aluminum benches outside and along the museum’s Memorial Walk of Honor. The cost of a 4” x 6” bronze plate with the inscription of your choice is included with your donation. A private dedication ceremony can also be held.
