World War II Memorial

This is the pillar or column that represents Nebraska in the WWII Memorial. We were so fortunate to see one of the Honor Tours there with the veterans of WWII at the Memorial. Many of them were in wheel chairs. It was an honor to see some of our men and women there. A woman veteran was being escorted in her wheel chair.

There is a column for all 50 states and 5 territories. One side is for the war in the Pacific and one side represents the war in the Atlantic.

We're heading out for more photo opportunities and lots more to learn today. I'll keep you posted.
