Between June 1950 and July 1953, 4,617 Marines and 107 Navy Corpsmen gave their lives defending for the United States during the Korean War. The war stemmed naked aggression and was fought for freedom and honor.

The names, in 3/4" high letters, along with rank and note of Navy Cross and Congressional Medal of Honor awards where applicable, are engraved for the ages.
