The Memorial Garden

When I was walking the Freedom Trail in Boston, we walked through the memorial gardens that are behind the Old North Church. As we were walking through, I noticed this memorial garden.

The memorial garden is an installation to honor all of the men and women (both the Armed Forces and civilians) who have lost their lives in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. The memorial is made up of dog tags that represent all of these people. There are currently 6 panels in place with the dog tags hanging there. I think it is an amazing representation of the amount of lives lost.
