Anthem Veterans Memorial - Renee Palmer Jones

Constructed in Anthem, Arizona in 2011, this memorial commemorates veterans and Veterans Day.  The significance of each Veterans Day is central to the design of the memorial.  At precisely 11:11 AM., each year on November 11, the sun will align through the elliptical holes in each of the five marble pillars (each representing a branch of the the U.S. military) in order to perfectly illuminate a round mosaic inlaid into the bricks, that of the Great Seal of the United States.
