Family members and friends can find the names of loved ones who have been honored for their sacrifice in one of the many Middle East Conflicts since 1979. The memorial is located at 200 Riverfront Drive in Marseilles, Illinois. Every year, the names of soldiers killed in action during the previous year are etched into the granite slabs right after Memorial Day, and those soldiers and their families and friends are honored at the annual Illinois Motorcycle Freedom Run on the third weekend in June. The ILMFR supports the Wall, and the etching of the names, with donations from supporters all over the county.
