“Our veterans put our country ahead of themselves and have earned the opportunity to visit the memorial dedicated in their honor,” said Walsh. “Janet and I are so grateful for the opportunity to participate in their weekend. It was our privilege to welcome these members of the greatest generation to Washington, and to share in the celebration of their service and respect for the lives lost."
