It's May Day. So today's picture relates to the first war we fought specifically to quarantine communism. This is the Korean War Memorial in Washington, D.C., near the Lincoln Memorial. We fought the war from 1950 to 1953. The war did not end with peace or a peace treaty. It ended with a stalemate that continues to this day.
I took this picture on a visit to Washington in November 2006. I only now noticed that large military helicopter hovering in the background. Adds to the atmosphere, no?
