The UP Veteran’s Memorial honors members of all 15 counties of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula who fought and lost their lives as members of the United States armed services. Granite markers surrounding a flag atop Pine Mountain recognize each conflict including Vietnam, Korea, World War I and II, Lebanon-Grenada and the Gulf Wars.
At the base of the flagpole is a time capsule, scheduled to be opened in July of 2106, 100 years after the memorial was dedicated. Commemorative items and memorial bricks may be purchased to support continued upkeep of the UP Veteran’s Memorial, a non-profit organization.
