Medal of Honor Information Center
The goal of this new Medal of Honor Information Center in the Grand Hall of the Pueblo Convention Center is to provide an interactive and patriotic educational tool that is fun to use. This was accomplished by using the Medal of Honor and its recipients, especially Pueblo’s four heroes, whose uniform jackets are part of the display, as examples of self-sacrifice, duty, honor and going above and beyond the call of duty at the risk of one’s life in defense of our country.
The major things you can select and learn about on the 7’x12’ video screen are:
- Details and videos about each of Pueblo four recipient’s and the heroic action for which they received the Medal of Honor
- A listing of, and information about, all the over 3500 Medal of Honor recipients
- The history of the Medal of Honor
- The story of the creation of the four Pueblo MOH Memorial statues
- The Veteran’s Bridge and all the names and their location on the bridge and in many cases biography’s and photos
- Why Pueblo is called Home of Heroes
