7,470 Boots. One Unbroken Promise

For the first time since 2012, this hallowed memorial leaves the gates of military restricted areas to stand in the heart of Tennessee. Walk among the stories of our fallen. Speak their names. Ensure their light never fades.

THE MISSION:

The Weight of the Rows: Behind every one of these 7,470 combat boots is a story—a life cut short, a family changed forever, and a legacy of service. For years, this powerful display was held within the confines of military installations. Now, Memories of Honor is bringing this sea of reflection to the public.

This isn't just a display; it is a visual representation of the cost of freedom. Arranged in chronological order, these boots represent our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines who have made the ultimate sacrifice since 2001.

Why We Invite You:

We don't just want you to see the boots—we want you to witness the names. By registering your visit or contributing to the memorial, you aren't just a spectator; you become a guardian of their memory.

    Lace up those running shoes and dust off your boogie shoes for the 2nd annual Live Like Jack 5K and 1Mile Kids run followed by a post race dance party and arm wrestling competition.

    Why are we doing...

    Lace up those running shoes and dust off your boogie shoes for the 2nd annual Live Like Jack 5K and 1Mile Kids run followed by a post race dance party and arm wrestling competition.

    Why are we doing this?

    Our son, Jack was born with a birth defect called bilateral clubfoot which, if left untreated, can impair a child's ability to run, jump and play. Jack also has arthrogryposis and limb differences, which effect his upper extremities and joints.

    Through our journey we realized that treatment for these conditions can be costly so we are raising funds to assist families with the cost of care associated with treatments, travel, therapies and adaptive equipment.

    All funds raised through the Live Like Jack 5k will benefit awareness, research, treatment and management of clubfoot and other musculoskeletal conditions and limb differences. We also donate and support adaptive athletes and those with limb differences and musculoskeletal conditions in activities of sport and fitness.

    Last year our proceeds went to Miracle Flights and Children's flight of hope to fly clubfoot and limb different children to treatment and surgeries. We also donated to Able Youth a non profit helping child wheelchair users navigate sports and daily living as well as Hope Walks a charity that treats clubfoot kids in low-income countries. This year we will be donating to Achilles International and other charities that align with our values.

    We aim to support EVERYONE--including those with disabilities, impairments and differences-- in their journey to run, jump, play and ultimately LIVE like Jack.

    We were told when Jack was a baby that he would "never be normal" and we say.... maybe "normal" isn't all it's cracked up to be.

    IN A WORLD OF NORMAL, EMBRACE YOUR DIFFERENCES!

    SWAG: All participants receive a top quality tee and fun finisher medal!

    Walkers, children and pets welcome and encouraged!! Or make a donation and come hang out with us :)

    *Chip timing by A matter of timing.

    POST RACE PIZZA AND DANCE PARTY! along with snow cones, arm wrestling and other fun events for kids... and adults!
