The World War II Memorial, the newest monument on the National Mall in Washington DC, is a beautiful place to visit and pay your respects to World War II veterans. Originally called Decoration Day, observed on May 30, and honoring the soldiers who died in the American Civil War, Memorial Day now honors Americans who died fighting in all wars and is observed on the last Monday in the month of May.
