Gold Star Honor Roll
Orange County’s Gold Star Honor Roll is to provide honor, hope, and healing to those grieving any military loss through active duty service in the United States Armed Forces. We include all branches of service representing all conflicts. We are working together to tell the stories of those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

Orange County Gold Star Honor Roll, Roll Call
Since 2009, the names of those who died in active duty are inscribed on a brick and added to the Gold Star Honor Rol Walkway to honor those additional servicemen and women who have been killed in action. With your help, we are telling Orange County’s fallen heroes’ stories through this memorial website. This new memorial includes service members’ names ranging from the terrorist act on 9/11 to more recent conflicts.
