2019-FallenMemorial-TW[1]

As we come together to celebrate and recognize members of the military as part of the NFL's Salute to Service initiative, we honor our United States veterans, active-duty service members and their families and thank them for their dedication and service to our country.

In appreciation, the Kraft family and New England Patriots Foundation will host the Fallen Heroes Memorial from November 21st – 24th, 9:00am-9:00pm at Patriot Place, Enel Plaza directly across from the Patriots ProShop.

Free and Open to the Public

This memorial is a 28 foot wide by 6 foot tall American flag that symbolizes the shape of the flag when draped on a fallen service member's casket. It is formed of approximately 7000 dog tags of all those who have fallen in the War on Terror since 9/11. There are 50 gold stars honoring all gold star families nationwide. Displayed in front of the flag is a battle field cross sculpted from mahogany wood. For additional information visit: https://www.vetsau.com/memorial.
