This brick was purchased to honor my father who served over 35 years in the US Army. He as inducted into the Army in 1952 and graduated from Officer Candidate School at Fort Benning, GA. He served in the Vietnam War in the Americal Division and is survived by his wife of 62 years, Hilde, along with six children, ten grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. He is my hero and will never be forgotten!

The Army Historical Foundation is the designated official fundraising organization for the National Museum of the United States Army.
We were established in 1983 as a member-based, charitable 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We seek to educate future Americans to fully appreciate the sacrifices that generations of American Soldiers have made to safeguard the freedoms of this Nation. Our funding helps to acquire and conserve Army historical art and artifacts, support Army history educational programs, research, and publication of historical materials on the American Soldier, and provide support and counsel to private and governmental organizations committed to the same goals. This is a non-federal entity. It is not part of the department of defense or any of its components, and it has no government status.
