Join hundreds of volunteers, including MAVRC, as we create a field of 2,972 flags at the War Memorial Center Monument representing the brave Milwaukee service members who gave their lives during WWII.
The traveling memorial is a replica of the actual memorial in the US capitol and consists of the Wall of Stars (aka Wall of Freedom), the Atlantic & Pacific Pavilions, 56 pillars and stands with oak and wheat wreaths. There are 4,048 gold stars; each one representing 100 American military deaths.
