This website is in the honor and memory of the men and women from Indiana who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the war against terrorism.
After September 11th, 2001, Command Sergeant Major Donald E. Peed, a 22 year veteran started this memorial at his home in Westfield, Indiana.
For each Hoosier lost, he would place a hand made cross in his yard. As of August, 2009 we have lost one hundred and fifty seven of our bravest and brightest men and women.
In 2005, CSM Peed lost his battle with Agent Orange. I know that my Stepfather was not done with the memorial that he had started. I am not certain what he had in mind, but what I do know is that it is my duty and honor to continue this memorial in his memory.
