Honor Georgia’s Own Fallen Service Members at Hinesville Armory

What: Media availability with Dan Williams and Georgia Army National Guard representatives, announcing the arrival and public display of a memorial wall at the Hinesville Readiness Center.

Dan Williams will set up the Wall from 10 am – 11:30 am Friday Feb. 7th, 2014 and will be available for an interview to discuss his motivation and the history of the wall.

Patriotic Production’s “Remembering Our Fallen” memorial wall honors 200 Georgia service members lost in action during the War on Terror (from all components of the military); their sacrifice is not one readily forgotten. The stark reminder of the ultimate sacrifice they made in service to their country includes a photo display of both military and personal photos. The wall is traveling throughout the state, with a prolonged stop at the Georgia Army National Guard Readiness Center in Hinesville.

The Georgia “Remembering Our Fallen” wall is the eleventh of its kind in the U.S. It has been traveling the state of Georgia since October 20, 2013.

The public will be welcome to view the wall for free from 9 am to 3 pm from Feb. 10th through Feb. 14th and Feb. 17th through Feb. 20th.

The exhibit was created by Bill & Evonne Williams of Patriotic Productions, Omaha, Neb. and is sponsored by Mike Reed Cheverly out of Hinesville.
