Mt. Soledad National Veterans Memorial is impressive and moving #memorialday #usmilitary #sandiego #travel #holiday

We celebrate Memorial Day to honor the service and sacrifice of the men and women in the military.

Mt. Soledad National Veterans Memorial is considered one of the most unique veterans memorials in America. It is the only memorial that honors veterans, living or deceased, from the revolutionary war to the current war on terror, with an image of the veteran.

Mt. Soledad National Veterans Memorial has stood at the height of San Diego since 1954. It has gone through many trials to be what it is today—A Beacon of Freedom. Thousands of people that stood before our memorial were able to honor and recognize the thousands of military men and women who sacrificed for this country. We have the unique duty to create plaques for all military people—living or deceased—so that all members of the armed forces can be thanked for their service. 
The Memorial is located at 6905 La Jolla Scenic Drive S., La Jolla, CA 92037.

Memorial Day is celebrated on the last Monday in May each year.
