Status: Open to the public
Find the memorial on the southeast lawn of the Arkansas State Capitol at 500 Woodlane Avenue. The Secretary of State publishes current maps, parking, tour, and security guidance; visitors should use those instructions for the Capitol grounds and public entrances.
The official roster contains forty-eight names; forty-seven can be linked to the current 3,478-recipient archive index.
John L. Canley is preserved in narrative and research notes rather than assigned an invented recipient ID.
The map point is a qualified southeast-lawn orientation point rather than a surveyed monument center.
No original Medal of Honor or personal-artifact custody is claimed.
