Divina Rutherford Blog #2 Outside Reading : WWII Memorial

The World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. is considered to many, including myself, a sacred place. I've visited it a few times being from the area and it was always one of my favorite memorials to visit. I also went there for a field trip in the 8th grade when it was correlating to what we were learning in our history class. When I used to visit as a young child I didn't fully realize its' spiritual and religious value. As I grew older I came to the realization that to many, especially those families of the soldiers who've lost their lives, it means a lot more than just a place of remembrance.
