Afterburner Level —  SOLD OUT

Mach 1 level    —     SOLD OUT  

Mach 2 Level    —    4 Slots remain

Remember that if you donated for the Virginia Beach monument you are included on the Pensacola and San Diego monuments as well!

Update on the West Coast Monument

Latest NOTAM from RADM ‘Bad Fred’ Lewis:
The Tomcat Monument Association is happy to report that the installation of the Virginia Beach monument is complete.  The Pensacola monument will be installed on 18 November next to the F-14 static display in front of the National Naval Aviation Museum.  The final Tomcat monument destined for San Diego has been slightly re-designed in order to accommodate 20 more donor names per panel.  Fully subscribing all the available donor names will completely fund this final install.  If you live on the West Coast and worry that you’ll never see the fruits of your donation, please consider donating now!  All information including a webcam of the Virginia Beach Naval Aviation Monument Park can be found on the Tomcat Monument website www.tomcatmonument.org.

Virginia Beach Dedication Ceremony

 The current COVID situation forces us to again postpone the Virginia Beach dedication ceremony. We are working with our vendors to find a satisfactory date in mid-May 2021. This decision was not taken lightly but the board feels it is the correct one given the uncertainty of the times. We will update details here when able.
