The World War II Memorial recognizes Americans who served, honors those who fell, and acknowledges the Allied victory that restored freedom and ended tyranny around the globe. Commissioned by President Clinton in 1993, the World War II Memorial sits on the National Mall between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial.

The memorial honors the 16 million who served in the armed forces of the U.S. during World War II, the more than 400,000 who died, and the millions who supported the war effort from home. Symbolic of the defining event of the 20th Century, the memorial is a monument to the spirit, sacrifice, and commitment of the American people to the common defense of the nation and to the broader causes of peace and freedom from tyranny throughout the world. It will inspire future generations of Americans, deepening their appreciation of what the World War II generation accomplished in securing freedom and democracy. Above all, the memorial stands as an important symbol of American national unity, a timeless reminder of the moral strength and awesome power that can flow when a free people are at once united and bonded together in a common and just cause.
