I went on a class trip 3 years ago, and that is one memorial that still stands out in mind. It is also one of the reasons why I want to go back to D.C.

When I lived in the area, I used to sit at the Jefferson Memorial on Sunday mornings with my coffee because it was so peaceful. However, once this fabulous memorial to the Korean War Veterans was built, I feel that no other place creates the same forceful impact that it does. You can feel the soldiers marching up the hill and you can just about hear them talking with one another.
