New Merchant Marines Veterans Memorial
Beaches Veterans Memorial Park

A Memorial to all who served in the US Merchant Marines and Navy Armed Guard was placed at the Beaches Veterans Memorial Park, Atlantic Beach, Florida, on March 7, 2023.  The Park is located at the corner of Atlantic Blvd. and Maypor Rd., Atlantic Beach, Florida, adjacent to the American Legion Post 316.  Stop by and see the beautiful Memorial.

The Merchant Marines suffered 6,839 lost lives, the Armed Guard suffered 1,810 lost lives, and 731 ships were sunk between 1941 – 1945.  Their motto is “We aim to deliver, and we did.”

Thank you to all our U. S. Merchant Marine and Navy Armed Guard heroes.

May God bless all who served.
