SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Notre Dame's monument, known locally as 'Stone Henge,' is a way to remember those who have served our nation.
"It's a staple of the Notre Dame experience. For me, it's in hundreds of pictures that I've taken, and it's in the walk that I see on the way to my classes. It's not really even known by a lot of students to be a war memorial, so I think that's something that I try to tell people when I show them around campus, or when they ask about the vigil," said Notre Dame senior and Navy First Class Midshipman, Carissa Baldwin.
The vigil she refers to lasts for 24 hours. It's been a tradition on every Veteran's Day since 9/11.
No matter what weather mother nature may bring, over 200 members of the Notre Dame ROTC will stand at attention under the stone arches of the Clark Memorial Fountain.
For Baldwin, it's a special week as her Irish play the Navy Midshipmen.
