WW II Memorial. Found it curious that there was no big WW I memorial. Washington had national memorials for Vietnam, Korea, and World War II before it had one for World War I (which ended in 1919). Not a fan of war but trying to catch up on history that I missed in school.
Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird cruised faster than Mach 3 and at altitudes exceeding 85k feet. Amazing bird, from this week at the Udvar Hazy Center in Virginia near Dulles International.
