Photographic, World War II Memorial

Photographers played their part in WWII and made a treasure trove of beautiful and moving historic images. The first person to find the location of the cameraman on the bas reliefs (he’s using a Speed Graphic) gets a free book.  There are I believe 255 figures in the bas reliefs along the North and South entry walls. It’s worth spending a couple of hours just looking through this intricately crafted history of the war.  Each bas relief started with a sketch which was scrutinized for historical accuracy and I chronicled their manufacture in the book.  The sketches cover war, support for the war on the home front, battles, services, skirmishes, manufacture, etc….
