Captain Rocky Versace Plaza and Vietnam Veterans Memorial:

The City of Alexandria’s Department of Recreation, Parks, and Cultural Activities, in partnership with the “Friends of Rocky Versace,” invites the community to a Memorial Day Ceremony honoring the courage and sacrifice of our fallen service members.

This solemn event will pay tribute to Captain Humbert Roque "Rocky" Versace (U.S. Military Academy Class of 1959, posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor, and a Vietnam War POW/MIA), as well as the 67 Alexandrians who were killed or remain missing in action during the Vietnam War. We will also remember and honor all of our nation’s fallen military heroes.

Please join us as we reflect, remember, and express our gratitude to those who gave their lives in service to our country.

In front of the Mount Vernon Recreation Center – 2701 Commonwealth Avenue, Alexandria, VA.
