WASHINGTON — The National World War II Memorial was among the landmarks in the nation's capital that were vandalized amid weekend protests.
In the wake of the death of African American George Floyd, the vandals asked in graffiti on the outside of the memorial's central fountain whether black veterans count. The Friends of the National World War II Memorial responded to the question affirmatively on Twitter, adding that the memorial honors and remembers the one million black veterans who served.
