The Korean War Veterans Memorial was authorized by Public Law 99-572 on Oct. 28, 1986
"…to honor members of the United States Armed Forces who served in the Korean
War, particularly those who were killed in action, are still missing inaction, or were
held as prisoners of war." The law established an advisory board of 12 veterans
appointed by the president to coordinate all aspects of the memorial’s construction.
The site is located adjacent to the Lincoln Memorial directly across the reflecting pool
from the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C.
