The WW1 Memorial in Washington, DC, will be completely unveiled this month has the 60 foot sculpture will be presented. There was a CBS Morning News article on the design of the sculpture this past Sunday. You can view that piece athttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zYGla3jW1o . In addition, the August WW1 Dispatch from the Doughboy Foundation: link covers the details about the first illumination of the memorial on Friday, September 13. Jim |

Way to late to matter to the Men who fought in WW1. It should have been as large as the WW2 and not just a remodeling of Pershing Park. |

I have very mixed feelings about this. It's way too late, and pretty much just exists because of fundraising companies went through the other wars. |

Saw the CBS Sunday Morning show. A magnificent memorial and
that will evoke emotions in all who see it. Also
American Legion Magazine had a good article. Seeing it on
tv, it stands out and will serve as a wonderful tribute
and honor to those who fought The Great War. It also
portrays the cost of war. |
