If Obama was a REAL Commander-In-Chief, he would apologize to those vets, and personally lead them around the memorial, in a return visit.
But he won't of course.

I had heard about the vets at the WWII Memorial, but had not followed the news.
So, when I came across this Washington Post pic, I thought of Adak.



But then, don't these "vets" look sort of young to be WWII vets ?

Adak, must be so proud... and their parents must be too !
