Keep clearly meets
WP:GNG, plenty of news coverage and no-one has even touched upon the sources related to the local debate that happened to allocated the $210,000 expense of this structure. Its a one-of-its-kind memorial listing all American service men and women killed in the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. So its hardly a local memorial, its a national memorial that happens to be in California. Its also not local coverage only, because as the nom notes it has gained national coverage. And before anyone asks,
WP:NOTMEMORIAL is not relevant here :P

Keep as a national memorial with all of those fallen in the two conflicts of Iraq and Afghanistan commemorated. Has reliable sources coverage including LA Times and Orange County Register which is a regional newspaper rather than local with a daily circulation of 250,000

Keep. - agree that it should be considered more than a mere local trivial memorial. It does have reliable independent sources for coverage.

Keep. Per others' comments, and note that significance is asserted: "it is the only known memorial in the United States dedicated to listing by name all American service men and women killed in the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq." -

Keep -- Looks notable to me. I suspect there is (or will be) something incorporated into national memorials covering more wars, but that does not change things.
