O God, by whose mercy the faithful departed find rest, look kindly on our departed regimental veterans who gave their lives in the service of their country in the Korean War and those that passed on in later years. Grant that through the passion, death, and resurrection of your Son they may share in the joy of your heavenly kingdom and rejoice in you with your saints forever. We ask this through Christ our Lord. A Memorial Page has been put together to memorialize those who are no longer with us. The Memorial Page is in two parts. The first part is a list of those killed in action and the second part is a list of those who were members of the 224th Infantry Regiment Association who passed away. The Memorial Page can be accessed by clicking on the button below.
