I have to admit, I didn't like the placement of the monument at first, and some of the early designs were just way too huge for the space. But now that I see a picture of it, I like it. WWII was a pivotal moment in our nation's history, when we moved to superpower status, and the brave men and women of WWII deserve all the recognition we can give them for what they did in service to humanity.

It isn't nearly as ostentatious as it appeared in the drawings I saw. It seems to blend in nicely with the area but is still impressive. They did a good job.
