The Anthem Veterans Memorial in Anthem Arizona was dedicated on 11/11/11 at 11:11 AM to honor our veterans. The specific date and time are in reference to the end of WWI with the signing of the Armistice Treaty on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918. The marble pillars represent the branches of the United States Armed Forces: Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard. The red bricks, white pillars, and blue sky symbolize the American flag. Over 750 service men and women are represented in the circle of honor with bricks bearing their name.
