Built to honor the 499 District of Columbia residents who gave their lives in service in World War I, the D.C. War Memorial was dedicated in 1931 in a ceremony that included President Hoover and a performance by a band led by John Philip Sousa. The memorial and grounds were restored in 2010. Along the base of the memorial, the names of the men and women from the District of Columbia who gave their lives in the World War are inscribed.
