The Veterans National Memorial Shrine and Museum is an all-volunteer nonprofit 501 (c)(3). We are the caretaker of a 40 acre memorial grounds featuring memorials for all wars, the Merci Train and the museum.
Our objective is not only to Honor the Dead and all who served, but also to provide inspiration for the living to search for and work for a better America.
Three objectives define our commitment:
To provide a forever memorial for veterans of all wars in which the United States has been engaged.
To preserve important items of these wars and give future generations a better understanding of the historical past of the United States.
To provide a National Shrine in northeastern Indiana where “No Veteran will ever be forgotten.”
