Cedar Rapids Freedom Festival takes this opportunity to salute our men and women in, or formerly in, uniform in military service to our country.
This page is dedicated to these men and women -- currently serving on Active, Reserve, or National Guard duty at home or abroad; our Veterans; and those who have answered the Final Roll Call.
To submit a name for inclusion on this page, please contact the Freedom Festival office at 319.365.8313 or email russ@freedomfestival.com. In the interests of the safety of active duty personnel regardless of where they are in the world, we will not publish duty stations or country.
