    Subject: Anthem Monument----Beautiful


    England’s Stonehenge, Egypt’s Karnak or Abu Simbel have nothing on us!


    Our memorial even has a plaque pedestal to explain it all.


    Archaeologists of the future won’t have to guess what the site is all about. One has to wonder why is it so under-publicized?

    Once a year at 11:11 am the sun shines perfectly on this Memorial. At precisely 11:11 a.m. each Veterans Day (Nov. 11), the sun’s rays pass through the ellipses of the five Armed Services pillars to form a perfect solar spotlight over a mosaic of The Great Seal of the United States.

    The
    Anthem Veterans Memorial, located in Anthem, Arizona, is a monument dedicated to honoring the service and sacrifice of the United States armed forces.

    The pillar provides a place of honor and reflection for veterans, their family and friends, and those who want to show their respects to those service men and women who have, and continue to, courageously serve the United States.



    The memorial was designed by Anthem resident Renee Palmer-Jones.


    The five marble pillars represent the five branches of the United States military. They are staggered in size (from 17 feet to 6 feet) and ordered in accordance with the Department of Defense prescribed precedence, ranging from the United States Army, the United States Marine Corps, the United States Navy, the United States Air Force and the United States Coast Guard.

    Additionally, the brick pavers within the Circle of Honor are inscribed with the names of over 750 U....S. servicemen and women, symbolizing the ‘support’ for the Armed Forces.


    The pavers are red, the pillars are white, and the sky is blue to represent America’s flag. The circle represents an unbreakable border. Anthem resident and chief engineer, Jim Martin


    was responsible for aligning the memorial accurately with the sun.

    Good afternoon all. :wub:

    I would also like to add my thanks and respect to all our Veterans!! Our freedom surely is not free!!

    Wow KC, that is a truly amazing memorial! I've never seen it or even heard of it. Definitely under reported!!!
    Thank you so much for sharing!!

    Oh Fran, that is WAY, WAY, WAY too cold to even think about yet!! :cry:

    Sorry just getting here, has been a day and a half. :laugh:
    Had that visitation this a.m., then have been trying to get packed and such.
    I just took a nap...big mistake. I think I could have slept through the night. :facepalm:
    Was only 45 minutes, but woke up completely groggy. Headed to go get a shower now and see if I can get a second wind. :)

    OBG, I agree, I think it's running faster too!

    I had one of those ... think I sold it though :unsure:

    Really not sure what all I still have around here :facepalm:

    Bought mine at half price quite a while back and love using it at the house, too heavy to take out and about. LOL

    I just ordered a couple more ego aio's. :facepalm: Why can't I just bite the bullet and make my provari and whatever tank I have in my totes work? I'm really so discouraged and LAZY. I know. That's really all it is. I'm so busy with whatever, I just don't have the time and need gear that just works at the push of a button. Sorry guys/gals. Just venting.
