The Past
The United States Armed Forces Legacy
Project was established  to honor men and
women of our armed forces.  The Project
site had to undergo extensive ground
preparation before the first basalt pillars
could be placed.
_____________________________________
The Present
Basalt pillars support the plaque walls.  
The Service Officer building and Library will
be built between the walls.

A ring of 5 pillars, represents each of the
armed services.  
This model depicts how the Legacy Project
will look when fully constructed.

The service officer building will have a
research library.  A qualified service officer
will be available to help veterans obtain
benefits such as medical coverage.

Your donations and support help us get
closer to completion each day.
