Community members are encouraged to download the submission form to identify Howard County residents who passed while serving in the United States Armed Forces. The submitted narratives will be added to the ‘Fallen Heroes Tribute’ webpage with a military service photo of the honoree to accompany their stories. The page will feature veterans from all eras including WWI, WWII, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Global War on Terror, and peacetime.
We are proud to highlight our thousands of veteran and military families and the service network which supports them throughout Howard County and the region. Honoring their sacrifice, particularly those who gave their lives in service to our country, represents the best of what makes Howard County a great place to live, work and serve.
The submission form and the new 2021 Howard County Veterans and Military Families Resource Directory are also available to download at www.howardcountymd.gov/veterans. The directory provides a comprehensive list of services providing specialized support for veterans in education, healthcare, recreation, housing, behavioral health, job training, VA benefits, and more.
