Made of high-quality Mesabi black granite personalized in charcoal-colored lettering, the Army Museum bricks will honor Soldiers, Army units, Army families, Department of the Army civilians, and Museum and Army supporters. Early purchasers will have prime placement and these bricks will be in place for the Museum’s grand opening!

Why My Brick?
While the National Museum of the United States Army Brick Program continues to “pave the way to Army history,” the personal stories related to the bricks are taking the program to a new level of significance. The feature, Why My Brick?, invites individuals to explain what motivated them to purchase their bricks and also provides a venue to share the stories behind their brick inscriptions.
Why My Brick? has generated a variety of stories, from families with ancestors who fought in the Civil War to Soldiers who want to remember buddies they have lost on more recent battlefields. One of the Museum’s themes is “every Soldier has a story,” and this program is a perfect vehicle for these stories to be told and preserved.
