173d
AIRBORNE BRIGADE NATIONAL MEMORIAL FOUNDATION
This Memorial is going to be built at
the National Infantry museum Walk of Honor, Ft. Benning, GA.
The 173d has many
markers and monuments. Its Medal of Honor recipients are recognized throughout the nation. Our fallen comrades are named in
state memorials and on The Wall. But there is no place where all this comes together, no place to tell our story. This is our chance to be honored as one unit, the finest airborne troops in history. It brings us all together at a place almost every one of us has trained and many have served. It provides a permanent memorial in the U.S. accessible to all of us – Sky Soldiers, family, friends.
This will be a memorial to all who have served or will serve in the 173d Airborne Brigade, especially to those who fell
in combat, whose names will be listed from all engagements – those that have been and those to come – in the order
in which they were taken from us. Voluntary donations from people like you - present and former Sky Soldiers, and family and friends of Sky Soldiers - along
with corporations, private foundations, and a variety of fund-raising events. The
total cost for the project is estimated at less than $650,000, including all construction, fundraising, and management costs.
This amount will be reduced through discounts and gifts-in-kind that will be sought from vendors. If you would like to
