I have a question that has been on my mind since the WWII memorial went up.

and yesterday someone who called one of the radio talk shows also brought this up

There is no national memorial dedicated to those who fought and died during WWI.

I heard there were 50 WWI vets still alive, they talked about two of them one in Virginia who is 103 yrs old and enlisted in 1917 at the age of 16 (i guess he lied about his age to get in)

And another who lives in Maryland and is 105 yrs old. now since these and 48 others still survive, I'm wondering if a movement could get started up towards the establishment to erect such a monument?

I mean I know there is no possibility of getting it up while there are still veterans of WWI as these 50 heroes are close to if not over 100 yrs in age and are not much longer with us, but I feel there should be a tribute to them and thier fallen comrades along side the the memorials for WWII, Korea, and Vietnam.

What do you think? And how do you get a project like this started?

Thanks for remembering our soldiers!

I found out today I lost a friend in Afghanistan, he was killed last week.

Freedom isn't free!

God bless...
