Wikipedia Description: National Japanese American Memorial To Patriotism During World War II
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The National Japanese American Memorial To Patriotism During World War II is national memorial in Washington, DC honoring the loyalty and courage of Japanese Americans during World War II and commemorating the heroism and sacrifice of Japanese Americans who fought and died for their country. It was authorized by federal statute (PL 102-502) and signed into law by President George H. W. Bush on October 24, 1992. The 0.76 acre site was transferred from the Architect of the Capitol to the Park Service in 1996. The Memorial was dedicated in 2000 and ownership of the Memorial was transferred to the United States Government in 2002. The National Park Service has the responsibility to maintain the Memorial. The project for the Memorial was initiated in 1988 by the "Go For Broke" National Veterans Association Foundation. The name of this organization was later changed to the National Japanese American Memorial Foundation (NJAMF).

The memorial is centered around a bronze sculpture of a crane with barbed wire by Nina Akamu. It also contains a bell modeled after a Japanese temple bell and a Zen garden-like pool of water with boulders representing the islands of Japan.

2012 photos: Equipment this year: My mainstays were the Fuji S100fs, Nikon D7000, and the new Fuji X-S1. I also used an underwater Fuji XP50 and a Nikon D600. The first three cameras all broke this year and had to be repaired. Trips this year: three Civil War Trust conferences (Shepherdstown, WV, Richmond, VA, and Williamsburg, VA), a week-long family reunion cruise of the Caribbean, another week-long family reunion in the Wisconsin Dells (with lots of in-transit time in Ohio and Indiana), and my 7th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including side trips to Zion, Bryce, the Grand Canyon, etc). Ego strokes: I had a picture of Miss DC, Ashley Boalch, published in the Washington Post. I had a photograph of the George Segal San Francisco Holocaust memorial used as the cover of Quebec Francais (issue 165). Not being able to read French, I'm not entirely sure what the article is about but, hey! And I guess what could be considered to be a positive thing, my site is now established enough that spammers have noticed it and I had to block 17,000 file description postings for Viagra and whatever else.. Number of photos taken this year: just below 410,000.
