The Congressional Medal of Honor Memorial recognizes the heroism of all 3,410
Medal of Honor recipients. The Medal of Honor is the highest
accolade for military valor awarded by the USA.
Located in White
River State Park in downtown Indianapolis, the memorial is
composed of 27 curved walls of glass, each between 7 and 10 feet
high and representing specific conflicts in which the medal was
awarded. The glass walls feature the names of the recipients,
along with their branch of service and the location of their
heroic action.
Each day at dusk, the memorial's sound system
plays recorded stories of valor. The voices heard are those of
Medal of Honor recipients.
Stage Tech Inc. designed a presentation structure to provide a
unique sound and lighting tour through the memorial on each of
four successive nights. The system, installed by Richmond Sound Design, uses
an Alcorn McBride show control system.
The entire system was installed
in record time, with show programs installed in a single
afternoon! Caboose Audio Production Services provided the audio
content. Miller-Eads was the electrical contractor for the
project. |
