KOREAN WAR MEMORIALS

 

The Korean War Veterans Memorial spans 2.2 acres of the National Mall in Washington, DC. Nineteen stainless steel statutes (7'3"- 7'6" tall), each weighing nearly 1000 pounds, represent personnel from all services who fought the war. There are 14 Army soldiers, 3 Marines, 1 Navy medic and 1 Air Force Forward Air Observer comprised of all ethnic derivations. Low growth juniper bushes at their feet and the granite 'dikes' lying across the Patrols path suggest the rice paddy terrain so familiar to Korea. The Mural Wall spanning 164 feet is highly polished dark gray granite weighing more than 100 tons. More than 2400 photographic images of land, sea and air support troops of all services and ethnic derivations are laser etched into the wall. The Pool is 30 feet in diameter, surrounded with highly reflective dark gray granite. The Reflecting Wall adjacent to the pool is engraved with the powerful inscription: "Freedom Is Not Free".
