The Heartland Airborne Memorial, which depicts an airborne paratrooper preparing to jump from aircraft, was created as a testimonial to the persistence, patience, tireless work and vision of Airborne veterans in our community who stayed the course in completing their mission.
The Memorial, which was dedicated on August 16, 2007, was made possible by The Heartland Airborne Memorial Association, inc. and by many benefactors who donated to the campaign. The complete installation was removed as renovation to the Gene Leahy Mall began, and relocated in 2019 to its current location in Memorial Park.
