We Shall Never Forget These four simple words continue to be spoken and written regularly. This week, we turned those words into action by showing our continued commitment to never forget. Recently, a Gold Star Mother reached out and asked if I would honor her son on the summit of Gold Star Peak. I couldn’t think of a better way than to adventure his Dog Tag to the summit and place it on the honor tower for all to see, honor, and remember. Before placing it on the tower, I asked the group of climbers we were with to come together, hands all in, to honor her request. This photo is our way of reassuring her that We Shall Never Forget. Please, say his name: SFC Brent A. Adams 1 Dec 2005 Army, OIF #furthertogether #saytheirnames #goldstars #goldstarpeak

Remembering the Fallen by Honoring Their Survivors
About us
No one has given more to our country than the families of our fallen: our Gold Star Families. The naming of the peak was a very small token of our appreciation for the unthinkable sacrifices they have endured. Gold Star Peak, Inc. has quickly turned into something much bigger as the connection among Gold Star Families and Veterans, especially in nature, is a connection where many walk away feeling an enormous sense of healing. Mission: To bring Veterans and Survivors together in nature to remember and honor the fallen and bring healing to all. Vision: To improve the wellbeing of military Veterans and the Gold Star Families of service members who have given their lives in a time of war, through education, support and advocacy.

RLTW, NSDQ, LLTB We just completed Operation Honor and Remember VI with a successful summit of Gold Star Peak. Each year, CSM(R) Jeff Mellinger sends out invitations to his friends including Gold Stars and Veterans spanning his almost 40 years of active duty service. This year, the participants represented almost every branch of service and came from all over the U.S. All, either served alongside CSM(R) Mellinger, or their careers crossed somewhere along the way, including combat zones. The group included Gold Stars, Doctors, Rangers, SEALS, Medics, Night Stalkers, and Veterans. All of them not only served in, but commanded or supported some of our nations most elite and historic formations; the entire group brought close to 400 years of combined military service to the trail and ultimately onto the summit. The climbers came to honor 12 separate fallen heroes and the families they all left behind, they were General Officers, Senior Leaders, Senior Enlisted Leaders, Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and a Marine. #RLTW, #NSDQ, #LLTB #Soldierforlife #goldstars #veteranshelpingveterans #furthertogether

Exciting news from our team at Camp Gold Star Peak! We're thrilled to share that our Remembrance Park is soon to be completed this Spring. None of this would be possible without the support of our dedicated volunteers, generous donors, and invaluable partners. This program is powered in part by Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) to honor and empower post-9/11 injured service members, veterans, and their families. Thank you for helping us honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. #furthertogether #communitypartners #veterans #goldstars #goldstarpeak
