I got my resources from [|www.nps.gov/wwii] and [|www.wwiimemorial.com] The construction of the memorial began in September 2001. The memorial was finished and opened on on April 29 2004, then it was dedicated on Saturday, May 29, 2004. Became part of the National Park System on November 1, 2004.
 * Timeline**

It was made to honor those 16 million who served to save our country. That those people started just living at home and then riking their lives to save ours. It stays as a timeless reminder of the moral strength and the awesome power that can flow when the free people are once united and bonded together in a common and just case. The memorial is located on 17th street between Constitution and Independence avenues. In Washington D.C. The public may visit the memorial 24 hours a day, but park rangers are on duty to answer questions from 9:30 a.m. - 11:30 p.m. The cost is free.
