Every year, veterans of the Korean and Vietnam Wars visit Battleship Cove to remember the 5,000+ men and women of Massachusetts who did not make it home.

USS Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr. serves as home ti the Commonwealth's official memorial to all Bay State service personnel who made the ultimate sacrifice in these two conflicts, and the memorial room on board her lists all of their names on permanent memorial scrolls.

Guests of Battleship Cove can rent this compartment for military ceremonies and special events such as memorial services, re-enlistments, or retirements.
