A Walk of Honor memorial was unveiled Saturday at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Fresno.

The walk is a landscaped area that leads visitors to the center’s Wall of Honor, which displays the names of service members, including more than 40 killed in action.

The intent is that the Walk of Honor itself becomes a sacred place honoring those who served the nation, said organizers.
