Fallen Heroes Memorials

---

Under Former Governor Bob Riley’s leadership, LTC (ret) Al Hinson’s Operation Grateful Heart’s Office led the initial creation and development of the “Alabama Fallen Heroes Memorial” to honor Alabamians who died while on active duty in the support of  the War on Terrorism.  This Memorial is located in the Old Supreme Court Chamber of the Alabama Capitol and is one of the top tourist attractions in the Capitol Building.

The Blue Star Salute Foundation similarly created a traveling “Faces of the Price of Freedom” display to erect at Veterans Events and schools across Alabama to ensure that these brave Alabamians who made the ultimate sacrifice are never forgotten.

The Blue Star Salute Foundation now has the honor of maintaining and displaying both of these Memorials.
