Remembering Our Fallen is a traveling photographic war memorial that honors our post-9/11 military fallen. This memorial has 34 Tribute Towers with military and personal photos of over 5000 of our nation’s fallen since 9/11/2001.
The memorial was founded by Bill & Evonne Williams of Omaha, NE, who have a desire to honor the United States military and share that opportunity with others. Their eternal hope is to honor the memory of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice, to provide comfort to friends and family of the fallen, and to remind others of the tremendous cost paid by some. Its legacy will be that these men and women will never be forgotten, and that their names will be remembered.
This National Memorial was unveiled in September 2017 at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C., and continues to tour the nation, giving Americans across the country the opportunity to honor our fallen.
