The Time is Now
For two decades, members of the armed forces, civilians, and their families have courageously stepped up to serve in the Global War on Terrorism. The GWOT Memorial will be a lasting tribute to the courage and sacrifice of all who have served — especially those who have made the ultimate sacrifice — in the nation’s longest ongoing conflict to protect our country, while inspiring all Americans to stand united behind those who continue to serve.
