The US ARMED FORCES LEGACY is both a project and a veterans
organization located adjacent to the city of Tonasket Washington.   The
city of Tonasket Washington has provided about one half acre of land on
a 99 year lease for the Legacy organization to build the project.  This
parcel of land lies adjacent to Highway 97 on the west, and is bordered
on the south side by Tonasket city limits .  The specific purpose of this
organization is building and maintaining the 'LEGACY'. It differs from a
memorial in that it accepts names of living veterans as well as those who
are deceased.  The Legacy is a 501 (C) 3 organization making your
donations tax deductible.


This organization encompasses veterans from all branches of military
service; active duty, retired, or honorably discharged.   Memberships are
$20.00 per year, and anyone can be a member, whether or not they are
military.   Life memberships are available at a prorated cost, based on
age.




The Legacy will include a wall with name plaques of those who gave
some and those who gave all.  Columnar basalt pillars will border the
parking lot on one side.  Other pillars will support the wall with the name
plaques attached.  Five larger Pillars will surround a Flag pole and a
fountain.  Each branch of the military service will be represented by a
pillar.



A Library with disabled restrooms and  service office is also planned;
along with a foot bridge across Bonaparte creek on the north. To date
the parking lot is discernible with 5 + ft columns of the basalt with nine
foot sections of anchor chain  between the columns.
