This memorial is dedicated to the servicemen and women who have lost their lives in worldwide conflicts since 1979, including still-ongoing conflicts.

The names on the wall represent fallen heroes from such diverse locations as Panama, Lebanon, the Balkans, Grenada, Somalia, Haiti, USS Cole, USS Stark, terrorist attacks in Italy, Greece, Scotland, and the current conflicts in the Middle East.

The wall was made possible by donations from the motorcycling community and every year, on the third Saturday in June, the Illinois Motorcycle Freedom Run brings tens of thousands of people here, paying respect to fallen heroes.

Bonus stop: Across the river, in Illini State Park, 250 oak trees make up the Illinois Fallen Soldiers Tree Memorial, dedicated to those who paid the ultimate price in Iraq and Afghanistan.
