Wednesday/ Veterans Day

President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. and his wife, Jill Biden, attended a Veterans Day observance at the Korean War Memorial in Philadelphia on Wednesday.

I took this picture in Mar. 2012 at the War Memorial of Korea in Seoul, South Korea. The memorial complex opened in 1994 on the former site of the army headquarters there. The Korean Conflict, 1950-1953, the United States’ only undeclared war, claimed more than 36,000 American lives. Some 7,600 service personnel remain unaccounted for. Hostilities ceased in 1953, but there has been no formal end to the war (with North Korea).
