Fields of Honor FoundationA Face to Every Name
Green. It is the color of a soldier’s uniform in times of war. It is the color of the sacred fields full of white marble crosses in which they found their final resting places, fields that remind us of the price of freedom. It is here that war and peace meet, where past and present meet, where remembrance goes over into reflection. They are inherently connected to each other. That is why we tell the stories of tens of thousands of U.S. soldiers who lost their lives in Europe during World War II. In doing so, we both remember those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom and inspire each other to hold high the torch of freedom that they passed on to us. Not only for our today, but also for our future. We are the Fields of Honor Foundation. Learn more about our work by visiting the websites of our projects or by following us on social media.
The Fields of Honor Foundation is an European non-profit organization. Please consider making a donation to help us keep the memory alive.
