Korean War Memoral in DC

 Read Southern’s Daydreams journal entry tonight by southern51

 Thought the Korean War Memoral was a must see

I have been to this memoral many times since it sits adjacent to the Viet Nam Wall

The faces on the korean wall are as haunting as the names on the Viet Nam Wall

The statues make the memoral come alive!

Thanks for the visit, JournalThoughts. I’ve been to D C and seen the Wall. It was a sobering experence

I like the statues. I was younger when I saw it and it is a very sombering experience, but I think the statues make the whole thing real for me.

Thanks for those pictures and links. I hope one day to be able to visit.

This memorial impressed me the most when I was there a few weeks ago. I found it haunting.

I can’t find the journal you mentioned under either name.

All the Memorials are special, but this one? More special than the others.
