Honoring Those Who Served - No. 3
The Navy Memorial Plaza is located along Pennsylvania Avenue, across from the National Archives in Washington, D.C.
The Memorial honors the men and women of the United States Navy, as well as the Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and
Merchant Marine. The outdoor plaza features a “Granite Sea” map of the world, masts with signal flags, fountain pools
and waterfalls (*) and The Lone Sailor statue. These bronze bas-reliefs, which surround the southern hemisphere
of the Granite Sea are among 26 which commemorate events and personnel relating to the various sea services.
