The Medal of Honor Monument, also known as the Oregon Medal of Honor Roll,[1] is a granite obelisk commemorating Oregon's Medal of Honor recipients, installed outside the Oregon Department of Veterans' Affairs Building in Salem, Oregon, United States.[2][3] Cut from a step leading to the Oregon State Capitol, the memorial is a replica of the state's monument in the Medal of Honor Grove Freedom Foundation at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.[1]
