I kinda disagree S@bot... I have read so many accounts from vets that commented on finally being able to see a national monument attributed to what they accomplished as a soldier, a team, and a nation.
We've erected all sorts of memorials for the Civil War, Revolutionary War, WW1, Korean War, and Vietnam... just name a few major ones. So why the long ass wait for WW2? There's already monuments for the 90's Gulf War. Shit, technically... there are Reagan, Warhol, FDR, etc memorials all over DC. My point was... why did we have to wait so damn long for a WW2 monument or memorial when that was the last war where we actually came out on top, cut and dry, clear winner. --------------------  |
