We need your help!

The Nevada Department of Veterans Services (NDVS) will unveil a memorial dedicated to all Nevada veterans who lost their lives while in combat.

The unveiling will be held on November 9 at 9 a.m. at the Nevada State Archives and Library Building, 100 N. Stewart Street in Carson City.

We need your help to locate immediate* family members of these courageous men and women. Family members may be eligible for travel reimbursement. Up to two people per family for round trip air fare from Las Vegas to Reno, with shuttle to and from the ceremony, OR fuel reimbursement if travel is more than 75 miles away from the Carson City area.

Time is of the essence and we need to hear from you no later than August 31.

Email: [email protected] or call: (775) 684-9294 to RSVP for this event and to apply for travel reimbursement.

Alan Callanan is a retired Command Sergeant Major who is currently working for NDVS as the Memorial Affairs Project Coordinator.

*NOTE: Immediate family includes spouse, father, mother, sister, brother, son or daughter.

HagenComment text: Maybe there is more to this story than what is reported, but it seems to me that the businesses that are causing this problem ought to be paying for this, or at least a major portion of it. Why does the County have to pay the whole bill? Just my opinion.Comment publication date: 5/7/26, 10:26 AMComment source: Storey County, Tesla partner to extend I-80 Patrick on-rampComment author: Alan ReederComment text: Great guy, laughed easily, had fun with his students, enjoyed our time together at FHS!Comment publication date: 4/23/26, 10:23 PMComment source: Howard David JacksonComment author: Jack & Nancy CookComment text: Wonderful man.
