Event Details

The Cool Spring Downtown District is proud to work with the Airborne & Special Operations Museum Foundation as a partner in the 14th Annual Field of Honor. Since its inception in 2008. The North Carolina Field of Honor has been an annual tradition in the Cool Spring Downtown District.

Hundreds of flags will fly on the parade grounds of the Airborne and Special Operations Museum. Each flag comes with its own story and displays a tag identifying both the person who sponsored the flag and the flag honoree. This living display of heroism flies as a patriotic tribute to the strength and unity of our military. It serves to honor all who are currently serving, those that have served, and those who have made the supreme sacrifice for our nation’s freedom.

Flags may be purchased to honor the memory of a veteran or current service member of any branch of service. To sponsor a $35 Field of Honor® Flag, visit the Airborne & Special Operations Gift Store, or visit online https://shop.asomf.org/field-of-honor/

The event is free to the public and will be located on the parade grounds of the Airborne & Special Operations Museum Foundation at 100 Bragg Blvd, Fayetteville, NC 28301.
