This section will take you to a photo tour of Korean War Veterans Memorial, Washington DC. The statues in the Korean War Veterans Memorial depicting fighting men on patrol represent the army, navy, Marine Corps,
and air force working together for a common goal - victory. The United Nations Wall of the Korean War Veterans Memoria lists the countries that provided troops, medical support, or supplies to help South Korea.
All these elements point toward the Pool of Remembrance where the sacrifice of 54,246 American lives can be contemplated. It is here where an inscription summarizes the true meaning of the memorial:
"OUR NATION HONORS HER SONS AND DAUGHTERS WHO ANSWERED THE CALL TO DEFEND A COUNTRY THEY NEVER KNEW AND A PEOPLE THEY NEVER MET."
