Remembering Our Fallen

December 22, 2016 @ 9:30 am - January 2, 2017 @ 5:00 pm

Through Monday, January 2, 2017, The Cradle will host the New York Memorial of the Remembering Our Fallen traveling memorial exhibit.

“Remembering Our Fallen” is a photographic war memorial created to remember our country’s Fallen who have died in The War on Terror. Because 9/11/2001 was such a defining moment for so many Americans, this memorial includes our country’s Fallen since that tragic day in our nation’s history.

Unlike most war memorials made of brick and mortar, this one includes both military and personal photos of our Fallen. It is designed to travel to offer more people the opportunity to remember our Fallen while being reminded of the tremendous cost of our freedom. Its legacy will be that these men and women will be remembered and their names will be spoken, while hopefully, helping to lessen the grief of their families.

The memorial is hosted by the Blue Star Mothers of America and sponsored by the Nassau County Veterans Service Agency of Nassau County.

Free with museum admission. Daily, 9:30-5:00 pm.
