COLORADO VETERANS MONUMENTS

 

Colorado Veterans Monument

Colorado Veterans Monument
200 E Colfax Ave., Denver CO

The Colorado Veterans Monument was built by the volunteer staff of the Colorado Tribute to Veterans Fund, Inc. which was formed in 1983  by Tim Drago, a Vietnam Veteran. When he discovered that other veterans from World War I, World War II, and Korea had also not been honored at our State Capitol, the veterans monument evolved into its present form. It is both a memorial to the dead and a tribute for the living of the past, present, and future.

The Colorado Freedom Memorial

Time and again America has called on Colorado's sons and daughters to defend the world's freedom.

Thousands who answered the call never returned.

DO YOU KNOW WHO THEY WERE?

Over 6,000 Colorado veterans left their homes, and our communities to make the world a better place.

HOW WILL YOU HONOR THEIR SACRIFICE?

The Colorado Freedom Memorial gives us all a place to pay respects to the memory of those that did not return. The Memorial will be constructed of glass that will reflect Colorado's mountains and blue skies. 14-feet tall and 125-feet long, the glass panels will be etched with the names of the over 6000 who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom. Privates, Generals, MIAs, Civilians, all wars and all branches of service, honored in one place. There is NO memorial in America like it.
