Disabled Veterans' Life Memorial
read moreThroughout our nation's history, service men and women have gone bravely into battle, risking their lives and livelihoods, sacrificing their safety to defend America. When their duty is done, many return home to life as it was. Sadly, for over 4 million veterans seriously injured in the line of duty, leaving the battlefield does not mark the end of conflict. These permanently disabled heroes often carry home life-altering disabilities - stern reminders of the price of freedom. For the first time, America will pay tribute to some of our most courageous heroes - our disabled veterans.
