Inscriptions- "Korean War Veterans Memorial 1950-1953,"
"The Forgotten War,"
names of all Washingtonians killed,
informational plaques.
The two-ton memorial was set in place using a helicopter in early July, 1993. It was officially dedicated later that same month.
The memorial originally contained the names of 523 Washington residents killed in Korea, with more names added in 1994, 1998, and 1999.
