The Anthem Veterans Memorial is a monument dedicated to honoring the sacrifice and service made by members of the United States Department of Defense located in Anthem, Arizona. The memorial's five white pillars represent the nation's military branches and are ordered in the size of each service. Each pillar has an elliptical opening that slants downward toward The Great Seal of the United States. On Veterans Day (November 11) the design allows the sun's rays to spotlight the Great Seal at precisely 11:11 AM.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Anthem Veterans Memorial )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=- Veterans Memorial – America’s Modern ‘Stonehenge’ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.visitarizona.com/places-to-visit/phoenix-central-arizona/anthem-veterans-memorial )〕 This award-winning monument is surrounded by 750 red paving stones engraved with veteran names.
