History
The artist of the Korean War Memorial is Deborah Copenhaver Fellows.
In 1989 many organizations and business owners belonging to veterans and other citizens were urging the Washington State Legislature who authorized the first state sponsored Korean War Memorial.
There were two reasons the project was approved: ''to thank all the citizens in this state for serving in Korea,and to show the spirit of service and the willingness sacrafice and dedication to freedom in remembering those Washingtonians who lost their lives in the war. This war is sometimes refered to as the forgotten war. That was probably another reason unmensioned, because after they built the memorial people became more aware of what hhappened.
