The Broken Hearts Memorial - A Living Tribute to Our Fallen Heroes
On September 12th, 2009 in honor of every U.S. Soldier who has lost his or her life in Iraq, along with their parents and families who have had to endure the loss, a broken heart with the word "MOM" was painted on the memorial. It is a small tribute to the great sacrifices these brave soldiers and their families have made for our country.

NJ Run for the Fallen
On August 22 and 23, 2009, a team of 24 dedicated runners ran from Cape May, NJ, to Holmdel, NJ. Each mile was run for a New Jersey Soldier, Sailor, Airmen, or Marine killed in Operation IRAQI FREEDOM and ENDURING FREEDOM. For two days, team members marked each mile with an American flag and sign card in an apolitical reflection of remembrance of each service member. The runners were comprised of active duty and reserve Airmen and Soldiers from McGuire Air Force Base and Ft Dix, NJ.
