Despite being one of the deadliest wars in U.S. history, there is currently no national memorial to World War I on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., which has memorials for the Vietnam War, the Korean War, World War II, and others. Congress hopes to change that by designating a park in the city as a World War I memorial. They hope to open the memorial by November 11, 2018, the 100-year anniversary of the end of the war.
