Here we mark the price of freedom - National World War II Memorial Mall - Veterans Day

We went on a family vacation to Washington DC.

We walked the National Mall from the Washington Memorial to the Lincoln Memorial.

The National World War II Memorial is between them just east of the Reflecting Pool.

The National World War II Memorial honors the 16 million people who served as part of the U.S. Armed Forces during World War II, including more than 400,000 who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country. The memorial sits along the central vista of the National Mall, at the east end of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The World War II Memorial is free and open to the public 24 hours a day. Park rangers are on duty to answer questions from 9:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, and interpretive programs are provided throughout the day and upon request.
