The site, located outside the Tom H. Jackson Building on the west side of campus near Middle Tennessee Boulevard between Bell Street and Falkinberry Drive, offers “a quiet place of reflection,” said Lt. Col. T.K. Kast, MTSU professor of military science.

This weekend, the public is welcome to visit the site that honors University alumni who fell in service to their country.
