Memorial Wall Plaques
Viewing the Memorial Wall is an impressive and poignant experience for museum visitors. Over 1000 plaques line the 100 year old limestone wall surrounding the Memorial Courtyard.

Individuals, ships, or units from all United States and Allied branches of service that served in the Pacific during WWII may be honored on the Memorial Wall. Names may be sponsored by friends, family and reunion association.

Plaques are solid metal, photochemically etched and anodized with a dark bronze background and silver text and detail. Photos and line drawings reproduce well and are featured on many plaques. Marty Kaderli of the Foundation staff will be happy to work with you to offer suggestions for the wording and layout of a proposed memorial.

Your $350.00 donation to the Admiral Nimitz Foundation will sponsor a 5"x7" plaque. The larger 20"x20" plaque may be sponsored by a donation of $2,500.00. All donations are used toward the further development of the National Museum of the Pacific War.

To Order or Receive More Information please call Marty Kaderli at The Admiral Nimitz Foundation (830) 997-8600.

If you would like a professional photo print of your plaque, please contact museum volunteer Dudley Harris for details. The price is $25 per print.

Memorial Bricks
Your $100 donation will allow a name and message to be engraved on a brick paver and placed in the Veterans Walk of Honor at the National Museum of the Pacific War. The walk is placed along the well-known Memorial Wall in the museum's beautiful courtyard.

There are three lines of engraving, each with fourteen spaces, available on the 4" x 8" paver. When the brick is engraved and installed, you will receive a certificate letting you know in which section of the walkway it can be located.

"A Salute" - If you'd like to sponsor a brick as a way of showing your financial support of the museum's efforts without specifying a particular veteran, the words " A Salute" can be engraved along with your name on the paver.

To Order or Receive More Information please call Marty Kaderli at The Admiral Nimitz Foundation (830) 997-8600, or download our pdf order form and mail your request to the Foundation.
