Did you know Fort Monroe has its own legend of a Moat Monster? An officer once reported a creature larger than a fish swimming near the Postern Gate before it vanished. Could it still be lurking beneath the waters?

On Memorial Day, one may hear artillery fired, known as a 21-gun salute. This tradition is one of the highest military honors rendered. Today, we honor those who gave their lives to defend our nation and remember them for their service and sacrifice.
