Gaines Jr. Veterans Memorial Park in Port Charlotte, Florida. The tower will memorialize the 241 Americans killed during the bombing of a U.S. Marine Corps barracks in Beirut, Lebanon during the Lebanese Civil War in 1983. More than 10,000 American veterans served in Beirut from 1982 to 1984 as part of a multinational peacekeeping force that included French, Italian, and British troops. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech.
