Of all the war memorials, the Korean might be the most impressive.
Soldiers are slogging through scrub brush. They are wearing rain gear and look worn down. The statues are slightly larger than life (just over seven feet).
It's particularly creepy as it gets dark and the shadowy soldiers are up lit.
If the Vietnam Memorial Wall brings home the death of war, the Korean Memorial brings home the suffering.
Behind the suffering soldiers is a wall with etchings of all the different military operations involved in the war, from air force fighters to navy transport.
