Korean War Memorial, Washington D.C.

This is a picture of one of the statues in the Korean War Memorial in Washington, D.C. The wall in the background has images etched into it, barely visible.

Like the Vietnam War Memorial across the way toward the White House, this memorial was a moving experience. One cannot fathom the many deaths which occurred and lives which have been ruined or damaged as a result of war. And to what purpose? Perhaps when our ends come to us we will gain an explanation. Wouldn't that be something. To finally find out what all this vanity is about?
