The
Memorial Projects
Valor
Remembered Foundation is working towards the creation of nationally
significant sculptural memorials honoring and preserving the memory of
two American heroes from the War in Vietnam - Master Sergeant Roy P.
Benavidez, US Army, Special Forces, and Major Stephen W. Pless, US
Marine Corps. Both of these men were awarded the Medal of Honor,
America's highest award for valor in combat.
Preserving the Legacy of
Valor Both
of the memorial sculptures will be placed on highly visible sites where
they will be seen and experienced by thousands of Americans.
To assure that America remembers the story of these men, Valor
Remembered will also create "virtual memorials" on the internet
presenting detailed histories of the events.
Brothers In Arms
Other men shared in the actions for which Benavidez and Pless
were awarded the Medal of Honor. Some of them were awarded the
Distinguished Service Cross or the Navy Cross, America's second highest
award for valor in combat, many others received no recognition other
than from their brothers in arms. Valor Remembered is striving to
assure that all are now recognized and remembered through these memorial
projects.
