The NCR War Memorial, standing proudly near Boulder City, commemorates the brave soldiers of the New California Republic who gave their lives in the First Battle of Hoover Dam against Caesar’s Legion. The monument, a solemn yet defiant testament to NCR resilience, is etched with the names of fallen troopers from the 5th and 1st Recon battalions, who held the line against overwhelming odds. Among the most honored is Chief Hanlon, whose tactical brilliance helped orchestrate the defensive strategy, ensuring that Legate Lanius’ forces were repelled. Nearby, a lone NCR Ranger statue stands tall, a silent guardian over the hallowed ground, reminding all who pass of the sacrifice made to keep the Mojave free from the iron grip of Caesar’s tyranny.

The battle itself was a bloodbath, with NCR heavy troopers and veteran rangers clashing with waves of Legionaries screaming "Ave, true to Caesar!" The fighting raged across the dam, with combat engineers desperately setting up defenses while radio operators called for reinforcements from Camp McCarran. The Boomers, though reluctant to engage directly, provided crucial air support, raining fire down upon the Legion’s advance. Many NCR soldiers still speak of the last stand at Boulder City, where an entire battalion sacrificed itself, setting off massive explosives to halt the Legion’s advance and ensure the NCR could hold the dam. The ruins of the city remain as a grim reminder of the cost of war, with the Brotherhood of Steel occasionally scavenging through the rubble for lost tech.

Today, the memorial serves as a pilgrimage site for NCR citizens and veterans alike, a place where the battle-worn rangers of the Mojave Outpost come to pay their respects. Soldiers fresh from training at Camp Golf are often brought here to understand the legacy of those who came before them, learning of heroes like Sergeant Bitter-Root, who overcame his past to become one of the NCR’s finest. However, tensions still linger, with rumors of a second Legion offensive brewing on the other side of the Colorado. The war may not be over, but as long as the NCR War Memorial stands, the spirit of those who fought at Hoover Dam will never be forgotten.
