AFMM Lifejacket Memorial Program

The AFMM announces our "Lifejacket Memorial Program". In exchange for a $250 donation, we will permanently mount a lifejacket with an inscribed plaque. The lifejackets are authentic navy issue and were donated to the AFMM by the USS Salem. The lifejackets will be mounted with steel brackets to the ceiling in the crew mess area, troop 2 museum area, or the crew quarters area on the LCI-713. Other ceiling spaces may be available upon special request and will be served on a first come, first serve basis. The lifejacket will be memorialized with a 1 7/8" by 8" gold aluminum plate attached to an hardwood strip which is then attached to the lifejacket bracket. You may specify up to 3 lines and 30 characters per line of text for your inscription on the plate.

In order to participate in the Lifejacket Memorial Program, simply make a contribution of $250 or more either online or by mail and we will contact you for the details. For any questions please Contact Us.
