LinkLinksOpinion Philip Kennicott in The Post: Finally, the nation’s capital has a proper World War I memorial. But can it revive memories of a war that’s mostly forgotten?

First came the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, in 1982, followed by the Korean War Veterans Memorial in 1995 and the National World War II Memorial in 2004. Earlier this month, the oldest of the four major wars of the past century, World War I, was honored with the newest memorial, a plaza with fountains and, at some point in the future, a formidably scaled bronze sculpture by artist Sabin Howard. 226 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
