USS KIDD & Veterans Memorial
Visit the Men and Women Who Made the History That You and I Can Only Read About. Visit the Fletcher-class destroyer USS
KIDD (DD-661), the "Pirate of the Pacific." Located in the heart of scenic downtown Baton Rouge, Louisiana, she is the
centerpiece of a memorial which serves to honor the men and women of our American armed forces. Take a step back in time
and learn about their sacrifices for the freedoms we enjoy today. Walk the decks of the KIDD in person. See the aircraft
that soared through the skies of Southeast Asia during two eras of conflict. Examine the dented helmet of an infantryman
who stormed the beaches of Normandy. Touch the names of the fallen Americans whose names are carved into the black
granite walls of the Louisiana Memorial Plaza.
