The memorial was designed and constructed to
honor all Mohave County servicemen, past, present
and future. The idea of the memorial came about
through the dedicated efforts of the Kingman
Veterans Memorial Foundation members and retired
United States Marines Jerry Ambrose and Chuck
Chlarson.
The 36-inch medallions, the 4-by-6-inch bronze donor
plaques and the solar lighting that will illuminate the
American flag when it is flown during hours of
darkness.
