Beautiful memorial that has been well kept and reverenced. Sits in downtown Alaska with a nice open park. There is free parking at the park as well. Great for children and wheelchair accessible. Not sure what its like in winter

Commemorative Park for ALASKAN VETERANS of ALL WARS & SERVICE

Im glad to see that Anchorage takes very good care of this memorial.

The two new sculptured panels have the theme Given...by the Great Land. These are solemn artworks which flank the USA flagpole and the memorials to the Alaskan military who have paid the ultimate price in their service to the country.The North Panel. “Reflections on the Great One” is 8 feet high by 20 feet long. Constructed of stainless steel, aluminum and granite with stainless steel mesh and bronze elements. It is meant to be viewed and touched from all sides and is subtly lighted with 13 lights. The 13 panels of mesh and granite create an abstracted view of the iconic image of Denali “The Great One”. Sculpted in bronze, an Honor Guard’s arms release an eagle that flies toward the summit. The symbolic elements in the sculpture include:--Honor Guard and Eagle Release – the soul of the Veteran flies to the summit of Denali----Mountain showing the strength of Alaska Veterans----13 vertical columns representing the stripes of Old Glory----Missing spaces for the lives Given by the Great Land POW/MIA----Mesh is the strong fabric of our military men and women--The POW/MIA flag flies over this sculptural panel.The South Panel is “O’er Land and Sea a Beacon Bright“ shows an abstracted ocean vista constructed of granite slabs with linear cliff forms on the mesh. In the center, the beckoning Big Dipper stars, the Honor Guard Bugler and the Presentation Flag provide realistic touchstones to this monumental artwork. The symbolic elements in the sculpture include:--Folded Presentation Flag for the Fallen Warrior----Bugler plays the 24 notes of TAPS----Eight stars of Gold for the Big Dipper in the Alaska Flag and the Gold Stars Moms----North Star is the guiding light that brings the fallen back home----Mesh is the strong fabric of the military in our state and country and is a place to leave reminders for family and comrades.--The Alaska State flag flies over this sculptural panel.

This was an extremely peaceful place, beautiful and very well done.
