To honor those Californians who have laid down their lives during the Global
War on Terrorism, the California State Military Museum has built a “Global War
on Terrorism Wall of Honor.” Constructed of black granite, this memorial is
located at the entrance of the museum. The names of service members who died
September 11, 2001, in the attack on the Pentagon, as well as those casualties
of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan are listed chronologically. The memorial
includes their rank, branch of service, and age.
For more information regarding museum hours of operation, go to

CALIFORNIA VETERANS
MEMORIAL REGISTRY
The California Veterans Memorial Registry (CVMR) is a permanent record to honor
California veterans, past and present, who have served our nation since statehood
was established in 1850. Whether a cook or fighter pilot, mechanic or chief of
staff, this memorial honors our veterans. The CVMR forever immortalizes the
contributions that California veterans have made to their nation.
In addition to being available on the CalVet website, www.calvet.ca.gov, the
CVMR is installed in a video kiosk at the California Military Museum. Using a touch
screen, users are able to access specific information about California veterans
and the manner in which they served.
