A focal point of the park is the landscaped Memorial Center featuring five plaques with official armed forces flags that commemorate each of the military branches of the United States. Also featured at the Memorial Center is an equatorial sundial, designed and produced by the Sundial Division of Erickson Memorial Company, Denver, Colorado. It was engineered exactly for the latitude and longitude of this site. The dial is made of granite and the gnomon (pronounced NO-mun) is made of stainless steel. The sundial is actually a miniature earth. Lit avail. at sundial.
