| Wreaths for Warriors Walk Fort Stewart, Georgia |
| Welcome to the Wreaths for Warriors Walk website. Warriors Walk was started in 2003 during Operation Iraqi Freedom. When a soldier assigned or attached to the 3d Infantry Division was killed in action, a tree was planted in their honor along Warriors Walk. Since that first deployment the 3d Infantry Division has been deployed to Iraq 3 times. Each month, a ceremony is held to dedicate the trees of the fallen soldiers for that month. As of October 2008 there were 417 trees planted along Warriors Walk. If you have never been to this hallowed ground, you should come and walk among the trees, read the names and see the mementoes that family and friends have left in remembrance of their loved ones who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Our goal is to honor the sacrifice of the soldiers and their families. Take a Tour of Warriors Walk See some of the soldiers represented on Warriors Walk |
| For years, Wreaths Across America has donated and placed wreaths in Arlington Cemetery. For 2007, their goal was to place 500,000 wreaths at veteran cemeteries around the country. We were a part of that goal. Our goal with Wreaths for Warriors Walk was to place a Christmas wreath at the tree of each and every fallen soldier at the Fort Stewart Warriors Walk. With generous donations, selfless volunteers, and in coordination with Wreaths Across America (WAA), our vision became a reality in December 2007. Based on the overwhelming support and attendance at that event, we decided to make it an annual event. We need your support and sponsorship of one or more wreaths to help make this yearly event successful. To find out how to sponsor a wreath, please visit our sponsorship page. |
