Description
An account of the resource
On the south end of Manhattan in Battery Park stands the New York City Korean War Veterans Memorial. This large cut-out of a soldier shape in a standing stele of polished black granite represents the “Universal Soldier” and allows the viewer to see through the granite to the Statue of Liberty. It was created by Mac Adams and dedicated in 1991 and is meant to signify the void left by death. The base of the monument has mosaic flags of all the nations that participated in the United Nations mission in Korean and the granite courtyard paving around the monument is inscribed with the numbers of killed, wounded, and missing from each nation.

Description
An account of the resource
World War I brought massive loss of life and many service member's remains were unidentifiable and thus placed in graves designated as unknown. After the creation of Tombs of the Unknown in Great Britain and France, Congress authorized a national memorial for these unknown soldiers in 1921. Four unknown soldier remains were disinterred and one of them was chosen by a World War I veteran US Army Sgt Edward Younger; this special casket was brought back and buried with full military honors at Arlington National Cemetery in a special marble tomb. The crypt bears the inscription "Here rests in honored glory an American soldier known but to God". With the rise of tourists,since 1937 the US Army has maintained a 24/7 guard which became the responsibility of the 3rd Infantry Division or "Old Guard." After both World War II and the Korean War additional unknown remains were added in adjacent crypts in 1958. In the 1980s amidst controversy, a Vietnam War service person's remains was added, but subsequent pressure by family members and veterans and DNA testing verified the remains as those of Air Force 1st Lt. Michael Joseph Blassie in 1998. His family requested his reburial at the National Cemetery at Jefferson Barracks Missouri. The Vietnam War Tomb of the Unknown has never been filled and instead was rededicated as a memorial to all service person's from 1958-1975 who are still missing.

Description
An account of the resource
This striking memorial on the National Mall stands out with its steel larger-than-life statues of Korean servicemen wearing ponchos that appear to be blowing in the wind. The statues represent 14 Army, 3 Marine, 1 Navy and 1 Air Force members and are ethnically diverse. The long mural wall is etched so that it appears three dimensional and presents scenes from the conflict and the highly polished black granite reflects the statues. The reflections appear to show 38 statues symbolic of the 38th parallel. The reflective pool at the far end of the memorial provides a quite place around the Freedom is Not Free wall that lists the casualties in the war. When lit up at night, the statues and mural wall are almost eerily lifelike.

Within the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific (also known as the Punchbowl) in Honolulu have been erected Courts of Memorial to honor all those US servicemen and women who have no known final resting place; this includes those whose remains were never recovered, those who are MIA as well as those buried or missing at sea. There are more than 28,000 names listed on the 10 large courts on each side of the stairway and the Court of Honor at the top which also includes a small chapel. Most -- more than 18,000 -- are from World War II in the Pacific (except for the southwest Pacific or Asian mainland which are commemorated at the US Cemetery at Manila, Philippines). There are also more than 8000 names from the Korean War and 2500 from the Vietnam War.

Description
An account of the resource
This granite gateway on the ellipse honors the U.S. Army's Second Division. In the gateway opening resides a dramatic 18-foot tall gilded flaming sword that is held by a large right hand. The sword bears the insignia of the Second Division -- an Indian head. Flanking the gateway are two walls on which are etched the two laurel wreaths and the names of the battles and campaigns in which the Divison participated and at the top of the arch over the gateway it simply reads "The Second Division". All lettering is gilded. The Memorial was originally conceived after World War I and the Divisions contributions in the conflict and the center of the Memorial represents the Division's defense of the city of Paris. Two low walls extend farther out and end in eagle-topped flagpoles. The memorial honors all those fallen heroes of the Division from the World War I, World War II, and Korea.
