The WWII Memorial

(Above)
There are 4,000 stars on this wall and each one represents 100 men that gave their lives during the war.*
The United States entered the Second World War in 1941 not to conquer, but to liberate a world fast falling to the forces of tyranny.
The World War II Memorial honors the 16 million who served in uniform, of whom more than 400,000 gave their lives.
It also honors the many millions who supported the war effort on the home front and celebrates the American spirit,
national unity, and victory. It recognizes the price paid by families.
