The World War II Memorial honors the 16 million who served in the armed forces of the U.S., the more than 400,000 who died, and all who supported the war effort from home. Symbolic of the defining event of the 20th Century, the memorial is a monument to the spirit, sacrifice, and commitment of the American people. The Second World War is the only 20th Century event commemorated on the National Mall’s central axis.

I am kind of at a loss as to why the OP is suddenly arguing against his own OP??? ScreamingMeemie Oct 2013 #11

Only in the minds of Teapukes is it appropriate. MineralMan Oct 2013 #7
