This memorial is dedicated to all Marines who have given their lives in the defense of the United States since 1775. The statue depicts one of the most famous incidents of World War II and stands as a symbol of this nation's esteem for the honored dead of the U.S. Marine Corps.

On Tuesday evenings in the summer, at 7:00 pm, there are military parades on the grounds and the Marine Drum & Bugle Corp and the Silent Drill Platoon perform a flag lowering ceremony.
