Monument Valley has been featured in many forms of media since the 1930s. Director John Ford used the location for a number of his best-known films, and thus, in the words of critic Keith Phipps, "its 13 square kilometers have defined what decades of moviegoers think of when they imagine the American West."

to the glory and honor and eternal memory of New Jersey Heroes by land and sea and air in all wars of our country"
