WWII Illinois Veteran's Memorial
Another perspective on the Memorial. The Memorial is so large that I have found it difficult to capture in a single image. The Memorial is a reminder to future generations of the sacrifices made to keep the United States and the world free and secure. The sacrifices made by the Greatest Generation must never be forgotten. The Memorial design centerpiece is a globe 12 feet in diameter which represents the world in conflict during World War II. It is surrounded by a granite wall engraved with the names and dates of major battles of the Pacific and European theaters of war. A central plaza of personalized engraved bricks completes the design.
