Wednesdays in Washington,DC

Like the National World War II Memorial (see my 05-30-12 post), the Air Force Memorial is one the newer memorials in Washington, DC.  The Memorial was dedicated on October 14, 2006.  Here are a few other photos I took of the Memorial:




As you can see, the Memorial features three stainless steel spires that soar upward.  The spires represent flight and "the flying spirit" of the Air Force and "evoke the image of the precision 'bomb burst maneuver' performed by the Air Force Thunderbirds Demonstration Team."
