About the Northwood Gratitude and Honor Memorial

Since 2003 the Northwood Gratitude and Honor Memorial has been the nation's only memorial dedicated exclusively to honoring by name all of America's Fallen from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The names of all those killed between October, 2001 and December, 2014 are engraved in the memorial's granite panels.

The Memorial is located at 4531 Bryan Avenue (at the intersection of Yale Avenue and Bryan Avenue) in Irvine.

"To be killed in a war is not the worst that can happen. To be lost is not the worst. To be forgotten is the worst."
