MEMORIAL DAY 2024



This entrance to the Basilica at the University if Notre Dame is known as the "God, Country, Notre Dame" door and was dedicated in 1924 as a memorial to those who gave their lives in World War I. In observance of the 100th anniversary of this dedication, a Field Mass will be said on Monday, as it was 100 years ago.

  3. Two of my great-uncles fought in that war and survived. They never talked about it. It was not America's war, and that makes your people's sacrifices precious and admirable. I salute them.

  4. It is so reassuring to see these Memorial traditions continued in
    our Nation... Tonight's Washington viewing should also reinforce
    the memory of and gratitude to those who gave their lives for our freedom...
