Lincoln would be willing to have his memorial REPLACED by any memorial to the fallen military.
If you click on the memorial website link above, it opens with the same flag graphic.
Clicking on the menu icon in the upper right hand corner of the website home page gives access the memorial’s design: it is a spiral descending into the earth ending with a panel recording the names of the fallen and a military-themed statue.
Desert Shield/Desert Storm had a defined beginning and end. We can enumerate the fallen and honor them (rather belatedly, I might add).
We are now approaching the 17th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks and the beginning of the 18th year of the war on terrorism. How are we, as a nation, going to recognize the service and sacrifices being made daily by service men and women on our behalf?
