Memorial Park, Fort Polk | 2026 Memorial Day Ceremony & Roll Call of the Fallen

On May 21, 2026, Soldiers, Families, and community members gathered at Memorial Park on Fort Polk to honor the fallen during the annual Memorial Day Ceremony. The ceremony featured remarks from Major General Jason Curl, Commander of the Joint Readiness Training Center and Fort Polk. In solemn tribute, we read the names of Soldiers who served at Fort Polk and made the ultimate sacrifice during the War on Terrorism (2005–present). Memorial Day is a time of remembrance — a moment to pause, reflect, and honor those who gave everything in service to our nation. Their legacy lives on through the families they loved, the units they served, and the freedom they defended. We remember them. We honor them. We will never forget. #MemorialDay #FortPolk #HonorTheFallen #ArmyCommunity #USArmy #ArmyLife #MilitaryStories #VeteranVoices Connect with the JRTC and Fort Polk online: Web - https://www.home.army.mil/​Polk Facebook -   / usarmyfortpolk   YouTube -    / usarmyfortpolk   X -   / jrtc_ftpolk   Instagram -   / usarmy28fortpolk
