The Citadel Memorial Europe exists to:

– Respectfully honor and remember the Citadel Men who died in WWI and WWII while in the service of their country and its allies
– Research, collect, and share their stories with an extra focus on their time at The Citadel
– Raise awareness and knowledge about them within The Citadel community
– Raise awareness with other memorial groups of the bond between these men and The Citadel
– Recognize and connect with the people who have adopted overseas graves and memorials
– Be a ready resource for Citadel alumni, cadets, students, faculty, family and friends living in Europe
or visiting from overseas

The Citadel Memorial Europe is a volunteer, not-for-profit project initiated by Roger Long, a 1989 graduate of The Citadel. Because this memorial project cannot exist without capable leadership, volunteers and financial support, Stichting The Citadel Memorial Europe Foundation was officially established in 2013. The Foundation’s office is located in Heythuysen, Netherlands, and is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce, KvK nr. 58224432. Our email address is info@thecitadelmemorialeurope.org
