You've got to be kidding. The WWII generation is the most remembered in
history. At any given time I can find a program on TV relating to WWII.
There have been more books written about WWII than any other. There
are numerous monuments relating to WWII in many places. Pearl Harbor
and the flag raising on Iwo Jima sculpture come to mind. Just because
there isn't a monument labelled for all WWII participants is a silly
argument. Besides it has been my experience that the harder it is to
get your monument erected in DC the more appreciated it is.
