Virtual Memorial Hall collects and makes accessible the story of the Naval Academy alumni whose names are etched on the hallowed walls of Memorial Hall.
"It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced..." Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg Address
The Virtual Memorial Hall project was created and is maintained by Run To Honor, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. We aim to preserve and perpetuate the legacy of Naval Academy Alumni lost in service to our Nation during combat or military operations .
This site demands input from friends, family, and shipmates. Stories and anecdotes, no matter how trivial, help us learn. Please contribute your memories by emailing Patrick McConnell '02.
All 2,566 alumni listed in granite panels throughout Memorial Hall, lost in combat or military operations.
Nearly 1,000 alumni killed in action, memorialized under the "Don't Give Up The Ship" flag.
Remembering the 72 alumni who received our nation's highest military award for valor.
