Located in the center of Cavezza Hall is a breathtaking gallery that evokes emotions of pride and honor. The Hall of Valor pays tribute to American Infantrymen who have received the Medal of Honor, our nation’s highest award for bravery. First authorized during the Civil War, the United States Army Infantry has produced more Medal of Honor recipients than all other branches of service combined.

From the outside, visitors can read quotes etched in the clear glass walls of the gallery. Inside are the names and faces of nearly 1,500 heroes who displayed “conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity” in the face of danger, often sacrificing their own lives to save others. Interspersed among the portraits are excerpts from the stories of these Soldiers’ brave actions. A monolith at the center of the room explains the importance of the award and feature large portraits of those who have earned it.

We are once again partnering with the Congressional Medal of Honor Society to provide a free professional development day for educators, coaches, mentors, and administrators. This year we are excited to be offering training for those working with ages k-12 in two separate sessions: 29 October for those working with secondary age students and 30 October for those working with elementary age students.

The Medal of Honor Character Development Training is a free resource that gives educators the tools to teach students courage, commitment, integrity, sacrifice, citizenship, and patriotism through extraordinary military and civilian stories, including those of Medal of Honor Recipients themselves.

The Character Development Program teaches students to recognize and exemplify the core values embodied in the Medal of Honor and helps create a positive and healthy school culture. The entire Character Development Program is available at no cost to educators. The curriculum includes individual and group activities, worksheets and extended activity suggestions, and resources such as Medal of Honor citations, live and archived webinars, and an extensive living history collection. Lesson plans are available for grades K-12, with Elementary lessons curated by grade level.”
