Friday afternoon fountain break



This is part of the World War II Memorial on the Mall in Washington, D.C.  My father was stationed in the Aleutian Islands, at the airfield on Amchitka, and Attu was the only land battle in the Pacific fought on U.S. territory soil.  So we took a picture of the engraving of the word "Attu" on the Pacific area of the monument when I took my mom to visit the memorial a couple of months after my dad died.
