Warrior Legacy Ranch announced Monday that the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) Wall of Remembrance will return to Baldwin County, providing a public tribute to those who served and sacrificed in the Global War on Terrorism.

The traveling memorial, which honors lives lost from the 1983 bombing of the Marine barracks in Beirut, Lebanon, to the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, will be on display 24 hours a day from Oct. 18 through Nov. 8 at The Waterfront Restaurant in Daphne.

The 120-foot-long, double-sided wall features the names of 9/11 victims and fallen service members from Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom on one side, with a detailed timeline of the Global War on Terrorism on the other. A special section also honors veterans lost to suicide, highlighting a continuing crisis. Nationwide, up to 44 veterans die by suicide each day, including one every 32 hours in Alabama, which ranks among the highest per capita in the country.

The memorial is made possible through a partnership between Warrior Legacy Ranch, Romans Warrior Foundation — the wall’s official steward — and Pete “Panini Pete” Blohme and Nick Dimario, owners of PP Hospitality and The Waterfront. Both have provided an accessible venue to welcome the public and ensure the wall can be viewed by all who wish to pay respects.

“This wall serves not only to remember the sacrifices made by so many who have served, but as a powerful reminder that the fight isn’t over when they come home,” said Patrick Jump, president of Warrior Legacy Ranch. “We hope that as people visit the wall, they not only honor the fallen but also renew their commitment to supporting the living — to standing beside the veterans still fighting battles we can’t always see.”

The GWOT Wall previously visited Warrior Legacy Ranch in August 2024, where it stood for three days and drew hundreds of visitors, families, and veterans.

In addition to hosting the wall, Warrior Legacy Ranch plans to break ground early next year on the Gulf Coast Veterans Community Resource Center. The center will expand services for local veterans and their families and is being funded in part by the Baldwin County Home Builders Association Charitable Foundation and the PR Foundation, led by Blohme.
