Military Memorial Plaques

Honoring Those Who Died in Service — In Bronze, and In Place

A military memorial plaque marks a person where they served. On a headquarters wall, in the corridor of the unit they belonged to, beside the door of a facility that carries their name.

We produce these individually and as matched series. The Judge Advocate General's Corps memorial wall is one of ours — a set of plaques sharing one template, added to over years, each holding a portrait, the decorations and the circumstances of death.

Portrait relief, unit insignia and decorations are included in the plaque price.

Matched Series for a Memorial Wall

When a corps or command memorializes its members over time, consistency matters more than any individual design decision. We hold the template — border, patina, typeface, portrait treatment, panel size — so a plaque added in ten years still reads as part of the same wall.

The Thoman and Mark plaques are from one such series. Each carries a portrait, the JAG Corps insignia, service dates and a short account of the loss.

Medal of Honor and Decoration Recipients

Where a decoration defines the record, it belongs on the plaque at a size that reads. The Father Capodanno plaque carries the Medal of Honor in cast relief alongside the portrait and the citation in condensed form.

We can cast individual decorations, campaign ribbons and rank devices in relief. Full citations usually need to be cut down — we will help you find the lines that carry the weight.

Sample Wording for a Military Memorial Plaque

IN MEMORY OF
[RANK AND FULL NAME]
[Branch] · [Unit]
[Date of birth] – [Date of death]

[One or two lines on the circumstances of death]

[Decorations]

[Dedicating organization]

Keep the account of the loss factual and short. Two lines carry more than a paragraph.

If the plaque joins an existing wall, send a photograph of one already installed and we will match it.

A starting point — we will help you tailor the wording, layout and artwork for your project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you add to a memorial wall we started years ago?

Yes. Send a photograph and dimensions of an installed plaque and we will match border, patina, typeface and panel size.

Do you cast decorations and rank insignia?

Yes, in relief and at a size that stays legible. There is no extra charge for them.

How long does a memorial plaque take?

Three weeks standard. We offer 7- and 14-day rush when a memorial service or dedication date is fixed.

Can families order a smaller copy?

Yes. Matching replicas at a reduced size are a common addition for families.
