Thousands of veterans from the Second World War have gathered in Washington for the dedication of a monument to those who served in the conflict. From the White House VOA’s Scott Stearns reports President Bush says it is a fitting tribute to the 16 million Americans who took part.
The new memorial stands at the center of the nation’s capital with two tall granite arches representing the Atlantic and Pacific theaters of battle. 4,000 gold stars mark the more than 400,000 American lives lost in the conflict. Below the stars an inscription reads, "Here we mark the price of freedom."
