Dedicated on May 29, 2004, the World War II Memorial is the first national memorial to honor "Americans who took up the struggle during the Second World War and made the sacrifices to perpetuate the gift our forefathers entrusted to us: A nation conceived in liberty and justice," as the announcement stone proclaims. The design by architect Friedrich St. Florian marks the Pacific and European Theatres of World War II with magnificent arches and remembers the 400,000 Americans who died with 4,000 stars (100 for each star) along the Freedom Wall. It is located on the National Mall between the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument.
