HENDERSON, Nev. (July 27, 2026) — The City of Henderson is now accepting applications for Henderson Military veterans to be added to its Veterans Memorial Wall in conjunction with the City’s annual Veterans Day Ceremony on Nov. 7.

Originally inscribed with 1,213 names, the Henderson Veterans Memorial Wall today bears the names of more than 2,000 veterans and soldiers who have served our country, standing adjacent to Henderson City Hall.
