The Personal Side of History
The Avenue of 444 Flags Foundation is strongly committed not only to honoring veterans, but also fostering knowledge and understanding of military history. These Tributes pages are dedicated to both of those goals.
While the they serve as memorials to individual veterans, they also present unique opportunities to learn about our collective history. As you read through them, you will find blue links that take you to Internet pages which present either overviews or details of the events in which these heroes participated. By reading the tributes and following the links, you will get both the personal experience and the broader context of historical perspective.
