Memorial Honoring Veterans Of America's Longest War To Be Built In Washington DC

A memorial honoring veterans of America's longest war will be built on the National Mall in Washington D.C.

President Biden signed the "Global War on Terrorism Memorial Location Act" into law this week, clearing the way for a memorial, alongside all other war memorials.

Several lawmakers, veteran organizations and gold star families fought for several years to make it happen.

The GWOT will honor all who have served and sacrificed following the September 11th attacks.

The memorial will be privately funded and still has to go through the fundraising and design process.
