There are over 4000 stars in the wall and each one represents 100 dead soldiers.also that there were many different sizes of 50 cal bullets and also that there was one of my great grandpas on the. Vietnam memoral wall - Kyle ice

There are many names on the Vietnam Wall. I think the exact number is over 400,000. And also that the Korean War memorial had many life-sized statues within the area. These monuments are much more realistic with these additions. Tyson Miller

 The statues of the men in the Korean War were actual men. 8:47 PM

Today I learned that over time planes that were used in war or just for transportation have changed over time and the technology has changed. austin fraelich

The memorials were beautiful! As the night went on, the way the sunset looked with the memorials were great! I loved how in the World War II memorial how they put up all those stars to represent the soldiers. Also the Vietnam memorials were AMAZING! When I saw the one with the names I never expected it to be that big.  The one with the soldiers in the bushes was beautiful as well.  I loved how the soldiers looked like they were coming out of the trees. Overall the day was tiring but great.

 Being one of the people to preset the wheel chair was totally awesome! I was glad that Rory Grant, Abby, Hailey, and I actually completed something great that WW2 memorial visitors, that includes even veterans, will be able to use.

Each gold star on the World War 2 Memorial represents 100 P.O.W./M.I.A. Soldiers. ~Kristi(: 4:42 PM


 The death toll from World War Two was incredibly high and was a lot more than I imagined. I thought that each star represented ten soldiers instead of one hundred 4:42 PM
